On Saturday I set sail for France, cycling hopefully from Roscoff to Avignon 
and thence to a gite for a week with friends, here:

http://www.tourisme-pernes.fr/fr/decouvrir-et-se-divertir/histoire-et-patrimoine-de-pernes/le-patrimoine-de-pernes/fontaine-du-cormoran

I have re-jigged my website as a blog so that people can follow me, and I 
can post phone snaps along the way. If anyone here is interested:

https://web-options.com/

When I get back I'll figure out how to use it for a portfolio of shots.

Q: Why is this post entitled LX?
A: Whilst there I'll become eligible for free prescriptions, free public 
transport in London, and 30% off rail travel


I'll unsubscribe sometime tomorrow for the duration.

A bientôt,
B

This alone would make the trip to France worthwhile! Very generous of your 
hosts.

Have a safe yet nevertheless enjoyable trip.

I’ll be crossing a similar chronological meridian in 2 1/2 weeks; I’ll have 
gratis transit in Philly and modest discounts here and there.

Have a great trip! Looking forward to the photos.

Hi!

Thanks for the tip... Wondering, how I forgot about them, but I bet
they charge serious money for any work by now :(

Luckily, the LX I got should hold up fine for some time. But I'll
start saving now for future SLA...
Camera Savings Account, anyone? :)

A lot of very good camera repair services won't work on the LX. Too many parts 
out of production, and a lot of complexity.

Actually, LX is on the list of serviceable cameras on their web site:

Says standard repair price $130, but I wonder how old that page is...

I would call or email them. That list also includes Auto 110.

I contacted them a couple of years back about one I wanted repaired, and

It gets quite oily and the only method that I've been consistently
successful with follows: First completely remove off the offending
piece, then clean the adhesive off both surfaces (methylated spirits
seems to do the trick though it's tedious). Apply a double sided
adhesive tape to the rear of the clean leatherette, trim the
excess/overhanging tape and then peel off the backing and apply to the
body.

Shutter works fine at slow speeds in Manual mode. Doesn't in

REPLY:

If it doesn't work on auto with film in the camera but works in manual only, 
then it is a switch (or something) that needs to be replaced. This is a 
common fault with the LX and happened with mine after 19 years.

P.J.'s got his hates going on today!

Last time I asked Pentax Canada, they suggested either themselves or 
Camtech in Burlington.  Call around -- I know Stan at International 
Camera did 'em before, though I don't know if he's still in business.  
I know someone had theirs done at Kominek's (which I could be spelling

escapes me.

But anyways, there are a few names in the Greater Toronto Area.

Subject: LX trouble


 I'm having some trouble with my LX in Av mode. Whenever it meters a
 shutter speed of 1/125 or below it will open the shutter for an
 unusually long time (like 1/2 second or longer). It seems to work fine
 with faster shutter speeds (1/250 and above, metered), and works fine
 when not in Av mode (the slower eletronically controlled speeds work
 just fine). Batteries swapped after this started occuring, so its not 
 a
 battery issue.

 Am I in for a CLA, or is there something I've missed?

Try rotating the ISO dial from stop to stop a couple of dozen times, 
then take the lens off and move the aperture simulator lever from stop 
to stop a couple of dozen times as well.
That at least takes care of the user servicable stuff.
Pentax Canada should still be supporting the LX fairly well. If they 
don't, Frank mentioned Kominek's as being good, and Precision Camera in 
Winnipeg has done good work for me in the past.

I had a similar problem with my LX in the past.  It was I asked Pentax 
repair in Vancouver to correct when I had then check out my LX.

The problem re-occurred after I got it back from Pentax repair.  I 
noticed a small protrusion in the bottom of the battery compartment that 
was shorting out the batteries.  I glued a small piece of plastic over 
the protrusion and corrected the problem.

Hi Alistair,

I didn't snip your post, as many subscribers only seem to read the PDML
through my quotes



On 16/4/06, Alistair Lax, discombobulated, unleashed:

A couple of months ago I mentioned my LX focus problem, where the top and
bottom of the screen were out of focus in opposite directions. It proved
surprisingly difficult to deal with, although the cause and solution turned
out to be simple in concept and may be of interest.

I took it for a service and was told it was an unusual problem - an ominous
start, as the service didn't sort it. I took it back, and it turned out that
the repair technician had trouble seeing the focus on the screen and relied
on the split image. He then adjusted the angle of the screen holder and
there was a small improvement. However the screen holder was left
dramatically tilted upwards, which didn't seem right. As suggested by
several of you, the most likely option was that the mirror was misaligned. I
noticed it appeared to sit higher than the mirror on my other LX, and the
adjustment lever was also higher. I realised that an incorrectly aligned
mirror would also explain why I sometimes cut off the top of pictures -
perhaps not just my incompetence! So, having scanned the internet and PDML
archives for information ...

I printed out a target of concentric rectangles and made a ground glass
screen consisting of perspex (plexiglass) that sat on the outer film rails
with magic tape strips facing forwards, ie approximately in the film plane.
As predicted, an image that was perfectly centred in the viewfinder sat too
low in the film gate.

Adjusting the mirror position is a nightmare, as the mirror stop is spring
loaded and its resting position is held by a lever that has a pivot and
locking screw. Over a couple of hours the mirror position varied wildly in
either direction, but my technique improved and eventually I got it adjusted
spot-on without either dropping the screwdriver on the shutter curtain or
irreversibly damaging the screwheads.

In comparison, the screen adjustment was simple as it can be done
incrementally. A slight complication is that one of the four screws is about
halfway down one side - the others are in the corners. This is fine if you
want to move it without changing the angle, but requires some calculation if
it needs to be tilted. However within a short time it was level, in focus
right across its plane and the infinity focus was set. I took some photos of
an angled target (as described in http://www.photo.net/learn/focustest/) and
will use that to fine tune the adjustment. Relief! Further relief when I
checked my other LX and found its mirror angle was perfect - I had had that
one serviced at the same time.

I'm sure the focus problem originated from bad service work before I had the
camera. The repair guy pointed out that both cameras were missing seals and
that the mirror buffers were non-standard. It's a pity he didn't think to
check the mirror adjustment.

Now back to actually using them!

thanks to all for your helpful suggestions

Alistair

The remedy is almost certainly relubrication.

Greases change properties over time and become harder. In addition, 
they can accumulate particles, both from the environment and wear on 
the mechanical parts. Most such particles will be more partial to 
moisture than the grease itself, and thus impact the low-temperature

I've discovered that my LX acts up when it's cold. But

What it's doing resembles the sticky mirror issue,

that's not the case. Pressing the shutter release
causes the mirror to start to move, it gets a few
millimeters off the bumper and then moves very slowly
upwards while the winder complains. Works beautifully
when at room temperature though.

Very typical of a camera in need of a CLA.
The lubricants become sticky and too viscous.
When I buy used Pentax bodies I test them and

The lower mirror bumper is not the only cause of sticky mirror, there are some 
other elastic rests in the mirror box that are likely deteriorating (turning to

Grease is just oil mixed with soap.  Repeated, slow, heat cycles will 
cause separation.  Normal soap is based on sodium stearate; if you use 
calcium stearate you get calcium based grease, lithium stearate gives 
you lithium grease.  Each gives the grease different properties. 
Discussion of the detailed chemistry and additive packages could keep us 
going for a while..

Either dried out lubricants in the mirror mechanism, or the lubricant is too

There are rubber bumpers on the mirror supports that are collapsing.  
It's a relative of the sticky mirror syndrome.  They and probably all
