Yep, manual~mechanical, slip of the keyboard...

Oh! I see. I take it, then, that the MV is full auto only, with no
manual settings possible. Mechanical shutter speeds notwithstanding.

I don't believe that the MV had any mechanical shutter speeds, just X
and B, sort of like a ME without the +/- 2 stop exposure override.

Margus,
I'm going to pass along a thought, although I don't own an MV and
know
absolutely nothing about them.
The 1 sec. min. shutter speed may only apply to a manual setting.(?)
The meter may, however, be able to set an exposure of up to 30
secs.(?)
I'll be checking to see if you find the answer.

Hi,
I got an old nice Pentax MV. Everything seems to work fine, but I
noticed, that by User Manual longest shutter speed should be 1
second.
My camera gives me also much longer exposures. I tried it at late
evening with lens stopped down to f22, exposure was about 8 seconds
and
everything turned out correct. My handheld meter also suggested 8
sec.
Is it something wrong with camera or is the Manual lying ???
BR, Margus
