Note: It is possible to load a lens table even when an LDS lens is attached. The LDA values calculated
from motor positions and lens tables take precedence over the values communicated by the lens itself.
This can be necessary, if the lens data from the lens is faulty or imprecise.
NOTICE
Please note that as soon as a LDA table is activated, the LDS contacts of the lens mount are
switched off. There is no need to switch the mount off manually when using LDA.
