This reminds me of the old thermos bottle joke----- A customer asked
the clerk what that thing was. The clerk explained it was a thermos
bottle. The customer, "asked what does it do?" The clerk explained
that it keeps hot things hot and cold things cold. The customer then
asked, "How does it know?"
My question is, how does the lens and it's electronice know its on a tripod?
