Interesting Projekt - canonlense control with arduino/ascom was created by Andreas

Might be interesting for some of you, using canon lenses without canon body.
A guy in Germany built one: www.astrotreff.de/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=207393 but he did the software side of it proprietary. He had the information from a Russian site.
I found it here in 'non Cyrillic': www.cloudynights.com/topic/538277-canon-...er-anyone-used-this/
the design is from Sergey (Palomar), he described it in a pdf.

Maybe someone is interested in indifying?
