Having owned most of the competing bodies, I'd have to agree. the PZ-1p is an excellent body and one of the best bodies ever made in its class. IMHO only the Maxxum 7 really stands out over the PZ-1p, and that's a 6 year newer design -Adam Who has over the years owned the Nikon F801, F801s, F70, F90x and F100, the Canon A2 (EOS 5) and EOS 3, the Minolta Maxxum 600si, 700si and 7 and the Z-1p. The Maxxum 7 is my favourite, but I'd take the Z-1p over most of the rest. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
