Hi Frantisek, Check that serial number again. 538**** should be a very new one - I bought a new LX (which was purchased from Japan just about the time production stopped, so I wouldn't think there'd be too many numbers that are higher) and an almost new LX last year and they each have 535**** numbers. 3200 is typical of all but the earliest LX models. Check the rows of dots on the shutter curtain. If a couple of dots are missing, that means you've got an LX with the newer mirror box. Sticky mirror should not be a problem with a newer LX. ;-))) [Three smiles = three LX]
