Hi Paul, I know it... :(
BTW, the LX in object is the worst looking one I have. I had even put on it the finder that once fell on a concrete floor (with another LX and winder mounted...), so it's probably a problem of contact failure between the body and the hotshoe (holding the camera vertically, orizzontally it shows no problem, it seems). I also tried to shot when the speed shown in the finder was 1/15s, anyway. The wrong choice was to bring with me THAT LX and THAT flash... I knew it, but I was in a hurry when I put all the stuff in the backpack. Only when I had to shot with the flash I thought about it.
