I hope you're enjoying it! I have two KXs, both black, and I find that they have the perfect simplicity yet information for a manual camera. I just love to shoot with them.
I do think one of the mirror dampers needs to be replaced - does anyone know a good place to do that in the Netherlands (or Belgium) ? At a stretch, Germany?

I saw this place the other day, based in the UK, offering full kits for refurbishment, including camera coverings:

I didn't look at English sites anymore, because of customs, but they are suggesting that they can avoid that - which could be interesting.
