Mike, I think one digital contact in mount as used in F, FA and later lenses would be enough for communication even if they add some commands for steering USM motor. Powerzoom contacts however are indeed neccessary to provide power! Cheers, Sylwek -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
