For me, about the same, based on a very short look at the camera, mostly
spent fumbling the (in my opinion only) too small control interface. My
reference is the MZ-5, which was the first of the MZ cameras.
It seems to me that if Pentax follows the same pattern with this chassis
as they did with the MZ chassis, they have a lot of room to put other
feature sets on the thing for model changes. The MZ-5 was pretty well
equipped for it's day, but they came out with several bodies above it,
and quite a few below it as well.
