Re: [Info] NX Mount Protocol Summary

Here is a good starting point: https://pickandplace.wordpress.com/2011/10/05/canon-ef-s-protocol-and-electronic-follow-focus/

The initial problem would be providing a required voltage, could be done with DC DC boost but would better served by external battery (at least for AF). Also, there are already AF adapters for Sony E mount but they work as slow as manual focus (pretty certain that I can focus faster) as they have to rack near to far and back.

I would be satisfied by aperture control and IS on long zooms. It could probably be done independently from camera leaving the adapter purely mechanical and zero chance of damaging the camera. Then again, where is the fun in that
