Thanks for the correction.  Pentax Canada's site lists the wrong data.
Their specifications for the 5n and 6 say "EV-1 ~ EV18", but if you ask
for a comparison of the two (as I did), both come up as "EV1 ~ EV18".

right info:
http://www.pentaxcanada.com/products/slr/mz6.php
http://www.pentaxcanada.com/products/slr/mz5n.php

wrong info:
http://www.pentaxcanada.com/products/slr/compare.php?compare%5B%5D=MZ-5N&compare%5B%5D=MZ-6&submitButtonName=Compare

I'll email them and let them know.
