For any topic you can find an expert that will tell you A+B=C, and another that will say that is completely wrong. Who's right? So, my sources, as lowly as they may be said it was a big sales flop in this region, and to Pentax Canada. MZ-S's are being bought by the tens of thousand in Iraq however, they want to take pictures of how stupid Bush is. I hope the reps. know something. At the best shop in my city, they sold 2, yes two, MZ-S, mine was one. I have an instructor that has 90 students with SLRs, there is only one Pentax, me. So it varies all over are we correct? Yes. I like my MZ-S (for the 10^3 time) but I think Pentax Canada stinks. I don't know if it is the top guys at Pentax Canada, or HQ, or what HQ thinks of this region. From the lack of ads, I'd say not much. Just jump the border and you may just see the exact opposite! Brad
