Pros: excellent analogue film SLR
Cons: nothing, perhaps batteries

besides Z1P one of the best Pentax analogue SLR, obviously

If it would perform 1/250 sec, flash synchronisation, it would be professsional.

++spot light metering in M-program

++Excellent TTL flash photos (I am using Soligor TTL-flashs),

++excellent AF

(I've fitted a modified battery grip of Canon Bg-3 for analog camaeras, because batteries for it are very expensive).Since 2019 there are rechargeable batteries CR2 available

++ a special feature: one program has a memory for customs of the photograph (learn function)

++ aperture indication in viewfinder

++ excellent results for analogue photography

9.5 points !

PS. unfortunately, the indication of time and aperture becomes more and more weak
