True. Say "not true" again, and I'll say "true" again, and so on... I can say that because I know both cameras from my personal experience.

No...:|* I don't care what Pentax says - it's more important what the users think. Do you think I'm the one who claims that? If so, then you're greatly mistaken. Just read individual reviews on the Net. But of course those review may seem meaningless to you, because you think something else. That's OK but don't question the facts. HyperProgram is user friendly, built-in flash compensation is user friendly, Pentax Functions are user friendly. You need a list of PF's for the MZ-S - Z-1p tells you, what the actual PF is all about. You need one touch of your finger to switch between HyP, Av and Tv in Z-1p. You can set the flash compensation w/o taking your eye away from the viewfinder in Z-1p. You tell me it isn't user friendly and complex? Come on! I managed to master my Z-1p and configure it's PF's in less than an hour and since then never looked back to the manual I don't know from what point of view you are speaking, but it's completely opposite to mine...
