Subject: [Leica] M8 question #2: Barcoding lenses

No there is no coding for this lens.  I have asked and the reasons are, the 
lens mount is part of the body of the lens and there is a screw in the wrong 
place and it cannot be reliably coded with paint.  I have seen no cyan 
coloring problems with no coding and I use a UV/IR filter on it.
