Doesn't seem like Aprils joke to me. I mean, someting like BG-10n grip doesn really work as a joke! Anyway, provided the rumor is true, it can (again) be no doubt that Pentax is listening. I personally voiced that weather sealing should have been implemented on the MZ-S. Several others complained about the plasic back. Now it has been implemented on the MZ-S Limited. The number of 5000 is very high for such a camera in these digital times. I wonder if it is available in chrome as well. It's a pity we apparently have to buy a Limited lens as well in order to get the upgraded body.
