I've never used the ME Super. This camera has a vertical scale display on the left side of the viewer that goes from 8 seconds to 1/1000 second between a red warning of UNDER exposure at the bottom and OVER at the top. A red LED indicates OVER or UNDER and what shutter speed will be set at the aperture chosen. That's the only auto function and it can be made more manual by experimenting with the aperture. But there's no way to see what are the results of trying different apertures until you get the scans or prints. The waiting and mystery are part of the fun.
