I’m in the market for a camera that’s always in my pocket wherever I am. My K50 is good for my skill set but it’s never with me. The old adage ‘The best camera is the one in your pocket’ seems to be calling to me! I understand from reviews that the MX-1 is very good for the money. That view is reinforced by the fact .I can’t find any for sale. Help!

What are the symptoms?
Thanks for replying. On Auto setting, shots are very dark…it’s like the light metering isn’t functioning effectively. Most of the time it’s difficult to know if there’s any subject there at all. My first look was…is the lens cap still on…but there is a very dark image. I’ve tried switching to shutter and aperture priority but still the same problem. Another reply suggested reset…I did think I might have done something daft and so I’ve tried that but I’ll check the manual to make sure I’ve done it properly. It’s a while since I used it…we moved house a year ago and it’s been manic for over 18 months. I have taken some pictures during that time; the last were moon light shots around our new house and they weren’t bad…something has happened since then…or I’m missing something really stupid!

My K50 seems to have developed a fault. Not sure what the problem is. Does anyone know a good service shop in my area OL14 6JE?

I want to extend my kit bag with a flash that will function with my camera, a K50. Anyone got a decent one at a reasonable price?

Are either of these still for sale. I was thinking of a present for my 18 year old son as a starter camera.
