Fellow LX Users, I was somewhat disgusted to find that both of mine (one new style, one old) both exhibit the same erratic behavior. I use the word disgusted because I have, very recently, had both of them CLA'd by Pentax USA (for a combined cost of $410).
Has anyone been keeping score or noting any trends? Have the older LXs shown less of a propensity for erratic shutters? I wish I had been keeping a tally. Best, Lance PS: Anyone have an MD motor drive (for the K2DMD) that they would be willing to sell? Please contact me off-list. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- > Date: Thu, 07 Nov 2002 12:12:08 -0600 > From: "Ryan K.
