When I had my MX, the LX screen actually worked perfectly without any compensation. A friend of mine had to reduce metered exposure by 1/2 a stop. So my guess is that it depends on how well your meter is adjusted. > > And, if anybody has experience in above mentioned screen exchange: are > there still other differences that makes my trick less likely to work > out properly? Aside from light transmission, the screens are identical. In fact at one time Pentax recommended using LX screens on MX if you needed a new screen. - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
