Well, for what it is worth, I did a few tests on my MX and the results are as follows. I used the same spot of sunlit lawn for metering. Setting was 100 ISO. MX with 50mm 1.7 PK-A lens reading was 1/250 @ f5.6 MX with 55mm 1.8 Super Takumar M42 lens was 1/250 @ 5.6 MX with 50mm Meyer Oreston M42 1.8 lens was 1.250 @ 5.6 MX with Tokina preset (!) 105mm lens on PK adaptor reading was 1/250 @ 5.6 So there. The readings are pretty consistent. I can't tell about my K1000 since the meter is no longer able to communicate with me...... Conrad F.
