I bought the Zeiss 25mm ZM Biogon from Popflash with the modification so it brings up the 28mm viewfinder lines.
i have tried coding it as a Leica 24m f/2.8 in a few different ways, including using the M-Coder made by Match, and I always get the same result - it shows up as a 28mm lens in the exif data. I leave the M8 set to auto-detect the lens with UV/IR on, and i am getting great results, but I am wonder if I am doing something wrong as far as coding the lens and don't know if I am somehow getting suboptimal results. I haven't noticed vignetting or cyan drift so far but I haven't used it a lot.
Has anyone successfully coded the Zeiss 25mm ZM to show up as a 24mm instead of a 28mm on the M8, and if so, can you let me know your coding method?
THanks,
Peter
