>>> One question though: What is an MB? And where did Minox come up with

The MB is the ML without the programmed auto exposure.  It is features only
aperture priority AE like the EL/GL/GT etc.

I believe the ML & memory lock are purely coincidental and that that is not
what the ML designation was intended by Minox to mean.
