Buy a $10 set of screwdrivers, a bottle of black nail polish/paint, a few toothpicks and you are off to the races. Does the new mount properly, let it dry. Remove the 4 screws that hold the old mount in place, replace the mount, put 3 screws back in.... Places on Ebay sell the mounts..... Frank Filippone Red735i at verizon.net Gene, I am using a Sharpie fine point marker and a kit called Coder Kit made by Match Technical. I am just getting around to coding my lenses. I am getting inconsistent results. My 28mm f2.8 and 50mm f2.8 show up fine but my 50mm f2 and Voigtlander 50mm f1.5 and 12mm f5.6 are not detected. A Voigtlander 35mm f1.7 was not detected on the first shot but detected on the second. Any ideas why the inconsistency? richard
