Moose,
I'm just interested in how the machine works. I'm certainly not trying to build
any new hardware.
Since the communication is serial, eleven contacts seems a lot.
From what I saw, only a couple of contacts are serial data. A couple are motor power. At least some others are
apparently simple binary high/low signals.
I suspect that support for legacy (non micro) 4/3 lenses might be the reason.
4/3 lenses are already nine contacts. I'll bet it's the same nine plus a couple of something(s) new on µ4/3. Engineers
tend not to reinvent wheels that are proven reliable. And Nobody wants to write new driver firmware.
