I also got a broken LX recently from my colleague.Then I had it to be fixed.I have looked for it since I used pentax's SLR.It's so amazing and pleasing when I press the shutter.

I actually want to get another one as backup! It's such a wonderful little thing to use. Even though I'm also thinking on getting an *istD, but that won't change a thing. The *istD will mainly be for studio shoot.

I was awaiting this mystical transformation that comes with digital camera ownership that makes you forget film, but that hasn't happened. Whilst I enjoy using the *ist D, it is nowhere near as good as the 'feel' of an LX. Maybe I love my slide film too much? A great pity an LX-D was never launched! For that, I would have sold my film cameras... Malcolm
