I've noticed that too. I made an exposure series yesterday in very bright sunlight and had virtually identical (and pretty much bang on) exposures through the aperture range with an M200/4, and then I repeated with a 2x teleconverter mounted as well, and got the same result. This also lines up with some shooting I did a while back of my dogs cavorting on a beach in BC. Full sun, no exposure problems. It leads me to believe that Jim King is correct and that the meter goes wonky close to the bottom of it's sensitivity range.
