Well, even if the lens doesn't give accurate data, it still can be done. Lets say the lens gives x mm, and at the next step y mm.
If we could program in a menu how the focus should react when the lens gives y mm, problem solved.
When ML reads 24mm change focus to +2, when it reads 35mm change focus +3, something like that. All that is needed is just a menu for programing how the focus should react to a given number of mm that the lens reports. It doesn't matter if the lens reports 24mm instead of 27mm, since we can program the focus at a given mm number reported by the lens (even wrong), we program the focus by eye.
We should have in a menu something like this:
17mm - a value
18mm - b value
19mm - c value
20mm - user inserts +/- focus correction in rapport to c value (or inserted by the user in rapport to what value)
