The shutter curtains were metal and had a vertical movement. There was no shutter dial, and the camera could not be used in manual mode, except for B and 1\/100 exposures. The Pentax-invented digital light meter was of the standard TTL open aperture centre weighted type. It was activated by a slight pressure on the release button.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Pentax ME had a 0.97× viewfinder, covering 92% of the field. The finder screen was fixed, with a split image and a microprism ring in the centre. The shutter speed chosen by the camera was displayed in the finder; the aperture was not. There was a hot shoe on the top of the prism and a self-timer. The selector around the release button had four positions: L (lock), Auto, 100X (1\/100, X sync) and B. The Pentax ME could attach an external winder ME I (1.5 i\/s) or the later ME II (2i\/s). The Pentax ME could also mount a Dial Data ME databack, or the later Digital Data M databack via a cord adapter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe lenses were interchangeable with the K bayonet mount.
