[LRflex] Re: Russian Chip for the Olympus

Aram.
 
I wonder how these Russians got the 4/3 wiring and communication protocol. I 
asked Leica, Sigma and Olympus here in France but all these guys were sealed 
lips!
 
Of course it is in the interest of the 4/3 consortium to let out the 
information so some "entrepreneurs" build a "hack".

Bill.  Nice dream.  I guess what you are missing is that the use described is 
not the intended use of the camera.  It would not be in Oly, or Canon, or any 
other camera manufacture’s interest  to have their software work for other 
brand lenses.  A hack does sound like a thing to do.  Any out-of-work computer 
programmers out there that want the challenge????
