Xavier,

I don't have an Oly so this is is just my initial reaction to the text and video about the Dandelion:

I thought computers (the one in the Oly and peripherals like the chip) were supposed to do the work for us, not create work for the user to perform. Shouldn't the Oly software be hacked to do it all seamlessly?

Am I missing something?

All the best,

Bill

Hello out there!

I was wondering if any of you had tried the Russian DANDELION AF focus chip which is programmable?

On the site :

They offer a video which is not too clear except if you understand that the manipulator reprograms the chip to match a certain aperture and focal lens.

Best regards & Esater Greeting Season.
