I used to have a Pentax MX. Basic but very tough. My LX shows more wear than the (silver) MX because of its black paint on a metal body. Every scratch shows. For a top flight camera I was disappointed that the LX self timer mechanism failed early on and a piece fell off the wind-on lever housing (it's probably still lying somewhere in Kennedy Space Centre), but then a piece of plastic fell out of my MX shutter lock lever as well. I do use my cameras a lot though.
For both the MX and LX I obtained a plain focusing screen with grid lines because the central split prism focusing guide was/is a positive nuisance with longer lenses.

Hello,
I own a LX body. I want to sell it, since I moved to digital photography (Canon). So I can't use my lenses, nor my LX body.
So I'm welling everything: lenses + LX-body . I have 3 Pentax non-af M lenses in excellent condition : 50 mm f 1.4, 28 mm f2.8, 85 mm f2.0
Anyone interested? :
Can anyone tell me which price I can make for these items on the second hand market?
Thanks!
Jan
I am interested in the camera could please send me some pictures and describe the conditions... (mint, ex very good) and possible defects.
