Some good points here but....
a) Pentax will target primarily Pentax users - the MZ-S fits the bill
b) There are people who actually prefer small cameras and lenses - the MZ-S fits the
bill.
...and is another F100/EOS clone what the world needs? The MZ-S is at least an
alternative. It isn't supposed to be a Nikon or a Canon or for everyone. The camera
smells direction and thats good...
