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????

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?

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.
