My LX and ME Super.

The LX was CLA'd by Eric (and new eyepiece glass by Eric). The original eyepiece had some pits in it. Probably an unnecessary replacement. I also installed new leather on it.

The ME Super I have not done much with (but new seals and bumpers).

The new LX leather looks really nice!

Nice shot of a nice camera! I think P series cameras should be the default recommendations for people wanting their first manual film camera. Cheap, no light seal issues, easy to use, and elegant - even the plastic ones!

Heres mine! Got it in mint condition. I like the modern feel and specifications of this camera, feels like a digital in many ways. But... its film

Dont care much about that lens that came along, but it does great as a body cap when the camera is not used!

The silver 28-80 is light and competent, though not especially wonderful.

I love my *ist. When I first got it, I took photos of my girlfriend. She asked to see the pictures and when I said she couldn't she looked crestfallen till she remembered it was a film camera.

and people worry about lens fungus... infection by LBA and CBA is far worse

Nice bunch there - of these 4 which is your favorite currently?

Tough question, they all do different things, I love them equally! The Super A is most used though.

Until I got my LX, my Super Program was my most used as well.

Nowadays, it's LX and MX for most used Film SLR.

Yeah, but the F 35-70 would be a better zoom on there and more compact as well.

I think it would probably be similar here if I could stop buying stuff long enough to afford an LX!
