Easily code your un-encoded Leica M, LM, ZM or VM mount lenses with this clip-on 6-bit encoder. Once coded, your Leica M or SL2/SL3 camera automatically recognises the focal length, records it in photo metadata, and applies in-camera corrections (vignetting, distortion, chromatic aberration) for cleaner JPEGs and reduced RAW post-processing.

This kit works perfectly for coding Voigtlander M mount lenses as they have a groove on the bayonet mount for the 6 bit code markings. 

For SL2/SL3 users with the Leica M adapter, coding also ensures correct image stabilisation for sharper results. Third-party lenses can also be coded with some trial and error for the closest match.

Kit includes: 6-bit coder, white & black pens, instructions, and lens code reference table.
