Re: MZ-S for under $700
The lowest price I have found for the U.S. version MZ-S (body only) is $768.99 from Tristate Camera. Has anyone found a better price for the U.S. model from a reputable dealer? Thanks.

The buttons are in roman (ie how I am writing now). My immediate reaction is that they are not "new", maybe "factory repacks", or "shop-soiled". We just imported some Nikon wireless slave units (from Hong Kong) - these were originally EEC market products - you can tell by the packaging. They cost a whole lot more to buy in the Japanese market. Barmy, isn't it? Pentax manuals even in the home market are in Japanese and English. The products are CE marked where neccessary.

Re: MZ-S for under $700
You can always get a manual in English from Pentax USA - it's $4.00 I've purchased new pentax gear from out of the US and received an international warranty card. Perhaps this camera is a "class 2" unit, which may be the term for a refurbished demo or warranty item. Maybe it's not really new. Remember, you usually get what you pay for, and the thriftiest man always pays the most.

Re: MZ-S for under $700
21days isnt a very long warranty on a brand new camera. My MZ-S has already been back for repair once. Maybe these are the older models that required the software upgrade?

MZ-S for under $700
Its legit - more or less. Camera City 800-896-2626 Says its an import version, so manual probably wont be in English No warranty beside the 21 day satisfaction guaranteed kind of thing. $649.99 available for immediate ship with a 'green warranty' for $724 normal US version is $849 So what country is selling them below $649 to these guys that they are going to make a decent profit? Aren't they all made in the same factory in japan, just put in different boxes with different manuals? Or is my FA button going to have Japanese characters? Quite a dilemma!
