Lovely camera! When it came out I couldn't afford one and had to settle for an ME instead. I've still got it, and the 40mm pancake that came with it, they both still feel and handle beautifully.
I hope that you explored past the Priory through to the area the other side of the lock.

Not this time Phil, but I have done many a walk up to Walsham Gates and Ockham Mill, and the other direction to Papercourt lock. This summer I might do a series on the Wey Navigation and it's Locks.

Release the lock and move the set-up to portrait orientation.

It is 38 years old now. I have had it serviced/seals replaced once in that time. Not used it for a few years, but everything appears to work, I will find out when i see the pictures
I had the MX from 1981 until 1991 when I got a Z-1. The Z-1 gave up the ghost recently but I have a replacement. I will give that an outing soon. In recent years I have built up a small collection of film SLR's with a K1000; MX; ME Super; ME-F; Super-A; and LX. Makes it more bearable being without the K-1
When i get the pictures processed I will post them on here.

Took mine round the world. LX with colour film, MX with BW. Lovely cameras both.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

It is fun using film again, really makes you stop and think about every shot.
