The first wedding I shot with my LX it buggered me up by refusing to trigger the flash in common fill flash situations. I didn't discover this little design flaw until I had a bridesmaid coming down the aisle towards me. I ended up with a few K1000s that became my 35mm wedding cameras. They did exactly what they were told to do. I like that in a camera.
