Yep, M9 and all lenses went off at the same time. Both the Noctilux and 75mm
Summilux were 6-bit coded during the trip.

As an aside, my 75mm has the number 50 sideways to the m/feet marks - does
that mean it is an 80mm? Are they all like that??

Wide open the point of correct focus should be slightly behind the focus
point (about 2.5mm) but nowhere near as far as yours is.  Did you send your
camera in at the same time?
