Have a look here Shel:

The circled lever is the aperture simulator on my LX. This is how the
body knows what the lens aperture is set to. The lever and the
associated electronics are what is missing from all the DSLR's & is
why we have the "green button kludge".

The lower picture shows the lever on my M50mm f1.7. In this shot it's
set at f22, but it's position changes depending on the set f stop.

Cheers,

Dave
