Not to seem compulsively argumentative, Kostas, but indeed on the PZ-1 you may be in Av mode setting the aperture on the lens, or on the body. And in Hyper Manual mode you can do both as well. You'd said the DOF-preview doesn't work in Program or Tv mode; I agree; but wanted to clarify that in Hyper Manual mode and Av mode, whether DOF-preview is available depends on how you are using the controls in those modes.
