Despite the fact that I really liked my MX, I don't hanker after one now and much prefer using my K-5.

SC-1, SA-1, SA-3, SB-1, SD-1, SD-11, SE, SG and SI will fit both. The other 15 options are LX or SFX. There are later screens as well that are quite different again.
That info is as of 1987.

The MX should have a bright viewfinder thanks to its silver coated pentaprism, so if it's dull something is amiss.

Algi, I've bought refurbished cameras from Pentax before now and they come in white boxes marked A grade and clearly refurbished.

Landcape would favour small apertures for maximum depth of field.
Macro will favour the same but sharpness and contrast may also be different.
Portrait may mean large apertures to isolate the subjewct from the background.
And so on.
