[ ] Keep buying used MXs ?
If money is no concern.
[ ] Buy a used LX?
Don't if you think you will save some service bills. Quite possible your possible future LXs would cost more than the MXs to maintain. Also, you can buy a bunch of trashed MXs for parts, but can't do the same for LXs.
Or do I move on to an AF body? And if I go AF, which MZ?
Not if you really love the viewfinder of the MX. None of the Pentax AF bodies has the quality viewfinder of the MX.
[ ] An MZ-3 (black)?
Not if you plan to use manual focus. The viewfinder sucks.
[ ] An MZ-S?
The quality of viewfinder is good, but magnification is quite low compared to MX.
[ ] Move to digital (either now, C*n*n with RAW output, or wait for the mythical Pentax D)?
If you want DSLR, waste no time. Buy yourself a 10D now.
