The LX was a one off camera. They had nothing of the same calibre as the
Nikon F2 or Canon F1 when they were current (which was why I bought into
Nikon in the first place), nor was there any follow up after the LX.
They may have marketed it as as professional tool, but they didn't have a
hell of a lot of credibility doing it.
