Didn't you say your 'first' LX? I just got a nearly new one for myself. I know the feeling! I think of it as a lot heavier and bulkier than I originally figured.
Still, it DOES feel so good in the hands. I've yet to take it out for a field trip. Too much other things to do at the moment. Maybe I can combine a few new-to-me lens tests with a camera test... Hmmm. Enjoy yours. I will mine! <g> keith whaley * * * Sid Barras wrote: > > After an interminable delay that increased my gray hair count, the LX is in > my hands.
