Well, I'll settle for that. I just want to keep my LX happy ;-)

I just ordered the film advance lever and cap from Pentax USA. The good 
news is that they were both in stock, and the lever cost $10.86 and the cap 
$2.88. The bad news is that the minimum shipping charge is $8. They also 
only deal in prepayment by check or COD. They are not the "accessories" 
department from which I have ordered parts before little missing plastic 
covers, et al.) and are not set up like the other two groups in CO, to take 
credit cards.

Re: LX rewind lever cover

2001-03-11 Thread Bob Blakely

Last I heard, Pentax was still supporting the LX and I expect them to
support it for some time to come. I Understand Pentax US had all parts
necessary last year and I expect they have this part today to restore any LX
to an "as sold" late model state. That being said, I own 5 LX's and none
have or ever had a "little plastic (?) cover off[on] the top of the rewind
[knob/lever]. They have a black/metallic rewind knob out of which a rewind
crank folds similar to all my camera types. It is naked with no cover as are
all my other cameras. Did you loose this crank/knob?

Regards,
Bob...

LX rewind lever cover

2001-03-11 Thread PAUL STENQUIST

When I was out shooting yesterday, I somehow knocked the little plastic
(?) cover off the top of the rewind know on my LX. I looked around the
area where I was shooting for a while, but couldn't find it. (I was on
frozen mud and grass, so the odds were against finding it.) Is there
some way I can obtain a cap? Would Pentax supply that as a part? I don't
suppose anyone out there has an LX that they've relegated to the parts bin?
