I guess it depends on the lens, more likely to work on a slow wide than a 75mm Summilux as the quality control may not be there. It is a reversible process if you do not like what has changed and on some lenses only five screws will go back in as one is under the 6-bit code. john -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+john=chiaroscuro.co.nz at leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+john=chiaroscuro.co.nz at leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Lew Schwartz Just saw these on eBay. You actually remove the rear plate from your lens and replace it with one of these. Then you look up the lens code and fill in the counter sunk depressions with (I guess) black enamel or magic marker. The idea is that by having actual depressions to fill in, they won't wear off like other diy solutions.
