How should we deal with lenses that are not coded of included on your listing? I have Minolta CLE M-Rokker 40mm f2.0 lens coming. This is the equivalent to the Leica C 40mm f2.0 Summicron lens. These lenses are not on your list and I believe have no 6 digit code available from Leica. I really do not want to send the lens to Leica for coding. It is possible that I could get the code for the equivalent to the 50mm or 35mm Summicrons and mark the lens mount, but...
By the way, I am in the market for an adapter for Leica M mount lenses including above for usage with the anticipated FF NEX camera once it is available.
Thanks.

Hi Rick,
That's no problem. The adapter has 2 modes of operation.
1) Try to read the optical coding and setup EXIF appropriately.
2) Use default lens specified by user.
You can configure the default lens from your computer. When plugged in to your computer you merely have to edit a config file to specify the code you want it to emulate. Or you can update the lens database and setup your own focal length and aperture.
I attempted to cover this in the manual, but I may have been unclear. I'll double check and see what can be improved.
