I've just entered the world of M8 use and the lens I'm currently using with it is a Hexanon 35mm with a Leica UV/IR filter. Obviously it's not a coded lens and I think it's difficult to code due to the positioning of one of the screws ( I've tried a couple of times with a "sharpie" and it's not recognising it as a "35"). How should I set the menu when using this lens regarding IR and lens recognition, etc. If anyone else is using this lens and has any other advice it would be greatly appreciated too.
