Subject: [Leica] no more R9 and R lenses

To make a fully electronic connection that engages the aperture ring and
iris mechanism, you could use a silent wave motor.  ( reasonably trivial
these days)

However to actually move something inside the lens, like an existing
aperture lever, may  take more motor mechanism than space allows... as a
retrofit or quickie adaptation...
As a first thought that gets built into  the design, it would probably be
less bulk and more feasible....

It certainly is interesting....
