Hi Luggers,
I have just had returned from John Millich the bayonet mount for my  
Hexar 21 - 35 M lens. I am going to use this on my M8. I have searched  
the archives and couldn't find any mention of what to code the lens.
Any suggestions from users out there? Also, I understand the bayonet  
brings up the 35mm frame lines on an M camera and should be modified  
to bring up the 28mm frame lines if the coding is to be recognized by  
the M8. Do I need to shave a bit off the coding edge of the bayonet or  
do I need to build it up? Any and all input gratefully received.
Thanks
Howard
