... But, the problems you describe are found on older cameras,
made before upgrades to the mirror box. There have been, I am
told, many changes and upgrades to the LX over the years.
Someone once said that there were 42 changes to the mirror box
alone. I don't know how accurate that is, but in any case, the
LX, as with other products, seems to have gotten improvements
over the years.
I have two new LX, and have owned as many as three older LX, and
there are physical differences, and differences in the way each
camera feels. No two are the same, except for the new ones.
