My mkI looks more like the mkII, with word "macro" on lens barrel instad of
flower symbol and the "edgier" design near the lens mount (exactly like the mkII
in the article pics). It's also the 7 aperture blade design (first version had 5).
Question is, was this "more metal design" incorporated earlier than with the
mkII realease, perhaps already with the change from 5 to 7 aperture blades?
