That does indeed look to be an LX, extra strap lug on lower left hand
corner, and a socket for the grip screw on the right. You can use
either for the optional cormorant plume.

Hello!
I follow several blogs, among them 'tokyo style camera'
<http://tokyocamerastyle.com/>.
The latest post in this blog
<http://tokyocamerastyle.com/post/532922289/forget-t-shirts-nobuyoshi-araki-proves-that>
has a link
<http://www.newbalance.co.jp/products/classic/switch/index07.html>
which features japanese photographer Nobuyoshi Araki with a Pentax LX.
I am unable to confirm that the camera is really a Pentax LX just by
looking at it and the text is in japanese :-( But according to 'tokyo
style camera' it is indeed a Pentax LX.
The author of 'tokyo style camera' is John Sypal, a young american
photographer (from somewhere in Nevada, I presume...) living in Tokyo.
He has another blog _valerian<http://kenshukan.net/john/>. If your
interested in Japanese photography another good place to start is
Japan Exposures<http://www.japanexposures.com/>.
