Again, from what I saw there's no need for the coding if you can 
stand not having the focal length in the EXIF data. Rather than spend 
$100 or more a pop, I'm most of the way there to another lens.

Wait for the release version; preferably get a hands on demonstration 
of coded vs. the same lens non-coded, and then decide.

After that I think there will be few who will send their lenses off 
on a perilous and expensive journey to be tattooed.

I'm past the age where tattooing appeals to me.
