What's the difference between the Xpan and the Xpan II ?

I remember reading about this very question in the thread below from photo.net

opps forgot to add the summary main info from that thread -- the key reply

"The XPan II offers in-finder readouts, longer exposures (9 min), better IR film handling, multiple exposures"

That's useful, Thanks

the original has a dial for ISO rather than the cumbersome digital push this and that and this a bunch of times. But they both have DX. I've found the camera less than ideal with long exposures in my V2- it is always under-exposing. I do those manually with my math.
