Lens Protocol

Mr Cheng,

I was wondering if you know of anyone who has made public the Canon Lens protocol. I'm working on a small project and wanted to drive a Canon lens without the camera body. Love your website, and plan on ordering your book!

Thank You,

John

Yes, I could use this too, is this in your book?

The Canon EF lens protocol is a private interface. And so far, no one has publicly published the protocol from reverse-engineering it. Companies and people who have reverse-engineered it are selling the specification commercially.

Can you or anyone share the name of a company or person that is selling the spec?
