Pleasure to use, accurate mettering, durability, nice design, good limited series lenses 31mm, 43mm, 77mm.
Stable under shutter release despite noticeable mirror bounce.
Real camera, one of few true photographic tools, well recommend the Pentax LX. In fact the only bad points for me is the mirror bounce, gummy gaskets deteriorate and camera need servicing every some years.

A great camera, but the Pentax LX is quite unknown... What a pity! Very good handling. Absolutely gorgeous light meter, as on the Olympus (OTF). Pentax lenses a bunch of good lenses, some of them even better than Nikon or Canon. Very reliable camera. Mechanical speeds. Its wide range of EV of it exposure meter, down to EV -6!!! Its the only camera, with a center weighted average meter, that It has.- Read Guest's review (94 words)

I collect Pentax cameras, however I use my old school Canon A series gear as my main kit, or I did until I got hold of an LX. It looks like nothing special until you start to use it, then you find out that this camera really is something else. You can trust this camera, even at its age, with the best film and the most important occasions. It allows you to take control of your image making, and yet has the safety net of reliable mechanics and metering. This camera will still be turning out good r ...- Read Steve Andrews's review (183 words)
