Re: Panorama switch on Z-70 and PZ70
According to the AOHC magazine "SPOTMATIC" n°33, page 15, Reflex Pentax 1952-2002 by Dario Bonanza: Z-20 and Z-70 have been sold in Japan with panorama features only (Z-20p/1993, Z-50p/1995) I read too a MF body, industrial version of ME in half-format (18x24mm) Michel

I wonder if these Z-series date backs could have panorama function and switch? My PZ-70 does have a date back. Although it is possible that Pentax only put a date back on bodies made with the panorama switch, I should stress that the panorama switch is not part of the date back. --jc

Check this link out: http://ulita.ms.mff.cuni.cz/~obdrz/camera/pentax/pz70.htm It states that the PZ70 dosen't have a panorama switch.

You might be right, as this is exactly the case with the MZ-10/ZX-10. Unfortunately, I do not have enough data to really get a clear picture... Cheers, Boz

Re: Panorama switch on Z-70 and PZ70
Hi, thanks to all who responded to my query on the Z-70/PZ-70 cameras! It seems that the Z-70 does not have a panorama switch, but the PZ-70 does. Neither Z-70p nor PZ-70p seem to exist. Cheers, Boz
