[Leica] 6 Bit Coder?

[gregj_lorenzo at hotmail.com (Greg Lorenzo)]

Vick,

 

I asked to be put on the list here on September 10th having missed the 
official annoucement on the 9th.

 

I was not expecting to hear anything further until late November but got a 
phone call that my dealer would have one coming in last week so I grabbed it 
quick (colour was irrelevent to me but the black is quite attractiive). No 
deposit was required which was kind of nice.

 

I too would like to see Leica to offer a custom lens code service for older 
Leica and non-Leica lenses.
