Intriguingly hard core." Actually the Minolta TC-1 titanium point and shoot has such an arrangement for apertures. It is a disc with a series of holes drilled into it. To change apertures, you turn the edge of the disc. It is very different from anything else out there today. I'm not sure how much financial success Minolta has had with the design.
