Frank,


The 35/1.4 pre-asph lens cannot be coded unless you do it yourself, 
mechanical skill required of course, which I do not have.  The mount cannot 
be removed, as it is part of the overall lens body, or so I have been told.  
I think that there is another problem in that one of the screws is in the 
wrong place.  The other lenses are codeable as far as I know.  I use my 
35/1.4 pre-ash with no problems, you do not really need to code it, in my 
opinion.
