In any event, could someone explain to me the difference between the

Really, I am mostly interested in a good, light-tight box that will accept
my Pentax lenses and let me do my macro in peace. :)
Taking these two parameters together, I think you should go to a shop
with your macro lens and try them out for yourself. Sure, people can
tell you what you forfeit with the pentamirror, but I think you should
judge for yourself, as the magnification and coverage may also differ
and make it 6 or half a dozen.
Your -5n and ME Super both have a prism, by the way.
