Here's one of my better images from that lens.
Good shot with a telephoto. Tripod?

After trying an MX, I decided to try its bigger brother too. Came with this lens (and a K45-125), and while it was away for its Eric CLA I found the designated hood.

The KX is a very nice camera, I prefer it to the MX, though the viewfinder on the MX is much better.

Never had one before, but that has changed ... LX, grip & winder ... the 77; I already had it ... it's amazing to me how big and heavy the winder is ... wow! J

The winder is a little heavy, but I like the way it works. I also like that it makes the shutter release much lighter than a standard LX, making it easier to hand hold in low light, and the weight makes it even more stable.

Salut unix,

Thanks for your post and I like it, too ... I had never held/shot before with a winder equipped LX ... I briefly used one long, long ago, but without the grip ... I'm happy to have one for my own use now J

Thanks. Your idea of a Auto 110 in there as well would be really cool too.

It's like David vs. Goliath of the film world. Cool photo of the two squaring off.
