Getting or creating lens files

[Eugene Kosarovich]

Anyone happen to know if this can work with the Canon KH20x6.4KRS lens?

Thanks.

As far as I know the KH20 does not have the necessary serial data connection needed for this.

Ah well, at least it tells me what the iris is doing.

I always wondered, since the camera menu does have the "show zoom" option available with that lens on, but the "show focus" option is not available... But, I guess not.

Since last firmware update was done, I noticed that in "lens file 1" menu name of my lens Fuji-S13*4.6. "VF DISP 1 " menu is set disp zoom=on, disp focus= --. Is there any hope that my lens is displaying that information? There is no rubber cap left from REC button...

Thanks,
Joseph

It's working. The lowest dip-switch was set to OFF.

Rick points out an important thing I discovered last summer while setting up new cameras for a broadcaster. The NEWER Fujinon lenses now have a dedicated dip switch for the serial communication as Rick pointed out.

The old method as outlined in the PDF file attached earlier in this thread is not valid on the newer lenses.

Yeah, tell me about it! Lost a whole afternoon with it. Hahaha ;-)

Still thanks for posting that document.

Joseph, brain damage on my part. The rubber cap is at the forward end of the hand grip OPPOSITE the REC button. Remove the rubber cap and move the bottom dip switch to the left (ON).
