Hi, I know the subject has been discussed, but I'm not sure my technique has been used, so I'm posting it ! I got my M9 a few weeks ago, and use old non coded lenses. So I tried to figure an easy way to code the lenses. I used the layout found here : BoPhoto.com: M8 coder - simple manual handcoding of M lenses and printed it on adhesive paper using the codes found here : Leica M Lens Codes (to be accurate, I used the coreldraw vector based file and filled the blacks on Illustrator) I then cut it with an X-acot, stuck it on my lens, only keeping the important part (code only) It took me a 3 tries in order to match the code reader and sticker, but guess what ? I finally worked, the M9 recognizes my lens ! :-) OK, the paper I used may not last long, I'll try with another paper, I had to add some marker on it as it was a bit damaged in the first adjustment process, but I thought I would share this tecnique with you ! :-) Regards Cedric PS/ very happy with my new M9 by the way, first pictures on my flickr > http://www.thual.net
