My abject apologies! There is a Mk IXB. It is as an A model but has a double time automatic attachment. This can be set to take 60 shots in either 1 or 2 minutes. The addition of am M (as in IXAM or BM) indicates a double eye piece, one normal and the other X2. I have never seen an official manual for the B model so I for one will be interesting to see what arrives. Paul.
