MZ-60 and MZ-50. I have shot Ks and Ms with the -50; you need to manually adjust the exposure when stopping down, as it only meters as if wide (and will thus underexpose). Just thinking for myself a workaround involving the ISO setting and the exposure compensation was my only photographic breakthrough. I don't have Shel's initial posting so I cannot help further.
