Thanks Bill. I will pay them a visit tomorrow and see what they can do.

Hello,
Can anyone help me to decide if I would benefit from a correction
lens in my 6x7 eyepiece? (It's a 6x7 MLU with plain prism).
On my LX I have the FA-1 set to mid-range, so assuming a linear
scale that's about -0.75 diopters. This is the viewing experience
that I would like to duplicate o

The 2CV is light, and the 602cc flat twin is fairly torquey.

Ah, I didn't realise that. I can see that the ability to respond to light

Hello,
I wanted to experiment with the low light capabilities of my recently
acquired LX, so last week I went out on a clear night and tried to
take photographs. The results were a little disappointing, and I'm
hoping that somebody will be able to explain why.
I used the LX in 'automatic' mode w

having affected a real photo yet. I'd certainly be interested to know
if the same thing was as likely to occur at higher speeds though.
I hope my observations have added something useful.
