Hi Fritz,
I think Pentax still replaces these free of charge. It is a problem with
PZ-1s and early PZ-1ps.

Subject: crack in bottom plate PZ-1
When I took my PZ-1 out of the bag this afternoon, I noticed the
bottomplate, next to the battery door, where it is only 2 mm wide, was
cracked, and one piece was bend outwards.
Now what can I do?
- Ignore the problem, or perhaps even remove the bended part.
- Glue with super glue the piece back? This bottom plate might not be
easy removed anymore after this, in case that would be needed for a
repair.
- Replace the bottom plate with a new one. Is that do-able for a person
like me? I am not into camera repairs, although I might do this if it
is really easy. Or should I get this job done for me? How much would it
cost here in the UK?
BTW: While trying to bend it back, I notice how strong this stuff is. It
is certainly not cheap plastic.
