The middle one is quite beat up and has a really big dent on the viewfinder. The impact has even cracked the glass lens over the focusing screen and jammed the little blue plastic flap.
But mechanically it's in top condition, doesn't leak and meters just fine. I like it the way it is with half of the leatherette ripped away.
Neither has shown any sticky mirror symptoms and the two other have only minor scratches on them except for the slight brassing on the mirror lockup button.
The most expensive one of the three cost me 190€...

These three were all bought since October, can't afford any cigars. Especially since a K-5 landed today. :-)

A somewhat beaten-up LX that I bought today. Seems mechanically and electronically OK though.
I got it for a reasonable amount of money locally here in Turku considered the condition it's in. |

Somewhat bad lightning but here's what came in the mail today:
Got it with the grip and a M40/2.8 pancake.

It's in need of light seal and especially mirror foam replacement. That's why I haven't shot a whole roll with it yet. But I must say I like the feel of the P50 more anyway.
The reason the MX was without lens is simple. I don't have a lens for every body. :)

My collection. The P50 and the MZ-S see the most frequent action. The Spotmatic II has a broken light meter, but I bought it as a part of a larger set (darkroom equipment etc) and I like the lens a lot. It's frequently mounted on the P50 which is my favorite manual Pentax film camera.
The ME Super is my most recent buy and it's absolutely spotless. I haven't put any film in it yet.
I got the MZ-S earlier this year by trading my K10D and some cash. It's also in very good condition. 89 rolls seem to have been through it. I really like the MZ-S, it fits perfectly in my hand even though the much bigger K20D fits too.
