Not _spectacular_ in any era, but _sweet_ in every era.

If mine hadn't been stolen, I'd still be using it. I'm keeping
my eye out for another. Though admittedly having a second K2
would work at least as well for me as replacing the KX. (It's
tempting to digress into a description of my current kit vs.
what I'd like to wind up with eventually, but I'll try to stick
to how wonderful the KX is for now...)
It's funny how little difference there is on paper between the
KX and the K1000, yet how large a difference in how I feel about
*using* the two cameras. I've been treating my K1000 as a
"backup" instead of being part of the regular rotation, mostly
because of the lack of DOF preview -- I'm just not as comfortable
using a K1000. When I had the KX it got a lot of use. (When I
shoot screwmount, I have DOF preview as a lens feature even when
it's not present as a body feature, so (oddly or not) I feel
more comfortable using an S1a than a K1000.)
But I loved the KX. Felt very good in my hands and did what I
needed it to do.
