Pentax LX

Here's a few shots from my newly acquired Pentax LX I received from KEH. Camera is spotless, and obviously works well. Fujicolor200/Rikenon P 28-100mm Macro. Since it was my first time using it, the pics were shot in Automatic.The pic of the camera was shot with my Pentax K3iii.

Great camera. I had its little brother, the KX, back in the 35mm days. Loved it because it had mirror lockup.

Nice images! I’m still lusting after an LX for my Pentax collection. My wallet just isn’t cooperating. That Pentax glass is superb!

As does this one. I have both the MX and KX also. I was out doing some comparision shooting between the KX and LX the other day. I'd take the same shot switching lenses between the two. In one shot in particular I was delibertly shooting close to the sun and while the LX has a great viewfinder, I simply couldn't see the LED's. With the KX's match/needle display, I could barely see them, but it was enough to make the adjustment and take the shot. I'll definitely hang on to all three.

You got really nice results. What film?
Fujifilm200. I've read where this is actually Kodak Gold200 re-branded and based on the warm tones/colors, which are not typical of Fuji film, I suspect that may be the case.

Hummm. I've not heard that. But could be a close copy.

thedarkroom.com. Located in San Clemente, CA. I've been using them for years for both 35 and 120mm developing, plus enlargements and never had a problem.

Thanks. I occasionally look in on some youtube film channels and very often the Dark Room is where the film is developed.

What gorgeous color! I'm not familiar with that particular camera, but I did have a K1000 as my first camera back around 81-82. Loved it.

Well the LX was at the top and the K1000 was at the bottom
