Yes, the ESII has no meter capability once taken out of the AUTOMATIC
setting. See the manual located at my site. Pity that.

Subject: Pentax ES-II question
Hi all you ES-II owners. I just purchased an ES-II with an SMC Takumar
55/1.8 for about $30 (US). The camera did not work in automatic mode so I
took it to Pentax Canada for repair. For about $80 (US) they did a
cleaning, replaced the mirror foam and fixed it so that it now works in
automatic mode. But I have a question for all you that have experience with
this camera. Is it correct behaviour for the meter to be disabled when the
shutter dial is turned to one of the manual speeds?
Thanks..
Bill
