I find that the multi-function switch gets in the way of my right fingers,
but that's a small price to pay for having the switch.

What I don't like about the winding lever is that I tend to shoot with my
right thumb between the lever and the body, with a bit of pressure on the
lever. Makes it very secure to hold it with one hand, and I'm right in
position to wind the film quickly. This works fine on my Super Program
and M42 stuff, but for some reason the LX doesn't like this, and freezes
if I put pressure on the lever while trying to take a shot. Frustrating.
Question for P�l: where did you hear this, and who said it? Is there a
transcript online anywhere that you know of?
