My only issue with the *ist is that they recently discontinued it.
I've had zero problems with it, very reliable, just curious about
another body, separation anxiety, y'know? <GGG>
Your suggestion is good, but... The few newer bodies appear pretty
flimsy (plastic mounts, limited features, etc). I almost always
shoot Av, and my favorite lens is the DA 40mm (no aperture ring),
which drastically limits my choices.
As near as I can tell from pictures and the manual, the ZX-7 is the
only Pentax SLR that allows Av mode using either the aperture ring on
the lens or a selector on the body. And it goes for about half the
price of the *ist. I was just curious if anyone had any strong
opinions, pro or con, about that particular model, since I haven't
read much about it.

Backups should be reliable. If you have any issues about
the *ist then you should have the same or more questions
about the ZX/MZ series. I'd suggest something newer OR
something mechanical.
