Chris, I'll go with the 1 stop faster shutter, but on the flash synch, and flash control in general, the MZ-S and AF360FGZ are more capable save it be raw GN than the PZ-1p and AF500FTZ.
I didn't like the side mounted flash due to location of shadows on the sides of heads. Never used the "user" mode, even though I used two bodies for a couple of years. Never had a power zoom lens to see if I would really like/use that feature. I have to say that I think the single biggest feature of the PZ-1p over the MZ-S is price. It truly is a great deal on a body. Probably for the right shooter, the PZ-1p might be a better fit, but I always like to know what people actually use, rather than just items on a list. That's why I asked the question. Bruce Friday, May 24, 2002, 7:36:06 PM, you wrote: CB> On Fri, 24 May 2002, Bruce Dayton wrote: >> I'm curious.
