Latest Review Posted | Pentax LX This is one of those bodies that just feels dead 'right' in my hands. It is solid, weighty, and as ergonomically spot-on as a rectangular box can be.
Like others, I am amazed by the low-light performance. With a relatively slow film, under a single weak globe, I have had fantastic exposures indoors, with great tone and detail.
Some would argue it is desperately outdated, but it still does now what it did so well when new, and that makes it one of the finest manual focus SLRs ever produced. Get a good example, have it serviced and you will find yourself returning to this body again and again for it's magical meter, and the genuine feel of a professional tool that the camera imparts. |
