Hi Peter, my batch number doesn't make sense according to above info, there are only 6 digits, and no letter. first is 1, second is 9 - but ser.num is 5339..., and I am definitely sure that the LX wasn't made in 1999 (or almost sure). Any ideas? Good light, Frantisek Vlcek - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
