Things to Check on an LX

Hi,

I am by no means an expert on the LX, though here are a few things I can think of:
- meter accuracy, compared to a control such as a digital camera
- shutter speeds,
I would do a test roll where you test as many different shutter speeds as possible whilst keeping the lighting and the subject the same. Then you should be able to see if the exposure varies significantly on any of the exposures. I did this recently with another camera and chose a bright scene with sunny 16 metering.
- self timer, does it work? mine is broken on my LX.
- Depth of field preview, does it work ok?
- shutter curtains look OK? on my LX one of them is slightly marked
- ISO setting. Does it affect the metering as you would expect?
- Can you remove the prism and all seems ok?
- Does the shutter lock function?
