As well as working reliably with the sensor, the ink is hard-wearing. The small tip is ideal for the M-Coder template, while the larger tip is suitable for increasing the size of the black mark on the M mount, if necessary. Remarkably, most M lenses can be encoded using the small tip only." I tried the do-it-yourself markings available on the internet and couldn't begin to be precise enough. The templates look much easier to use. Tina Tina Manley ASMP, NPPA, EP, PI http://www.tinamanley.com
