The LDA consists of a user list and a main archive list. The user list should
only contain the lenses currently used to achieve quick access to the desired
lens tables. The main archive contains a set of lens tables for ARRI/Zeiss
Highspeed, Master Primes and Ultra Primes and can be extended with
additional lens tables for any PL-Mount lens.
