For me it starts with the question of comfort. I did not get the PZ-1
because after about ten minutes I could not hold the camera. It was
uncomfortable to me. The MZ-S is totally different. It reminds me of the
LX in terms of comfort. Ultimately, I have to enjoy carrying the camera so
that it is with me to take pictures.
I will not address any other points because I am sure they will come up.
But you do always owe it to yourself to handle a camera before buying it.
