The MV-1 was an upgraded MV, adding motor drive capability but, unlike most Pentax film bodes, the black version is much more common that the chrome (in fact, I've never seen a chrome MV-1 other than in a photo). I'm fairly sure the standard lens was the 50 f2 and I'd be surprised if the one in the ad was fitted with anything faster.
