This one may be a bit tricky: what equivalent code would you use for a Summicron 40. If I remember well (I just bought this one because I have fond memories of that lens, but I don't have it yet) it brings up the 50 framelines.

Yes, but with minor adjustment the 35mm framelines can be automatically brought up. These are quite conservative on the M8 and suit the field of view almost perfectly.

 

A forum search should reveal all.

If you file the lens to get the 35mm framelines on M8, what framelines you brought up in film camera?

I use the summicron with the Leica CL as well and I am afraid that i wont see the 40mm framelines on CL.

Is that correct?
