Nice pics!
Curious, what kind of 'user error' are you experiencing? The LX is just an aperture priority camera, like a million others out there. No menus, no tricks etc.

Normally, I can't show my pictures from film cameras SOOC.
There's always a lot of processing involved

There's always that time when you aren't as good with the new one as you are with the old one...
The part that makes it worth it is when you finally click with the new gear... and "quirks" become second nature...

Thats a bit of a unicorn.. a 110 with film and a willing shooter? Every one I've come across seems to be treated like a museum piece. I'm interested to follow for your results.

Like the grain on the HP5+ really enhances the mood of this scene.

To be honest it's a sentimental favourite from when I did wet darkroom developing and printing with Ilford products. It definitely has distinctive characteristics, but so do Tmax 400 and Tri-X (as far as 400 speed black and white films go, I know there are others I haven't tried), can't say I have a preference, I just load whatever and see what comes out of my scanning & PP workflow.
