Hi, when my LXs were stolen the insurance company first offered me 3 F3s with MD-4s as replacements because they thought they were the nearest current equivalent to the LX. I went to a camera shop to see how they compared. Lifted one F3+MD4 and decided there and then, based on the weight & size alone, that this was not the camera for me. They are real monsters.
