The design of the MX's on/off switch (aka the shutter lock) allows a poorly adjusted copy to drain the battery despite being turned to the off/locked position. It's one of the more common issues with the MX. The K bodies feel solid but rough in my experience. Smooth is generally not part of the experience. I like them better than any of the later manual focus bodies except the LX, but they aren't as pleasant to work with as a Nikon or Olympus body. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
