If it was that simple Sony wouldn't have struggled with their Alpha-mount adapter.

Even the four-thirds gang has issues here.



That said - I don't understand the problem either.

I guess it might be a matter of the NHI-syndrome (Not Invented Here), as in the different groups developed their own interfaces, with different signals and signal types. I don't think that would be an issue with Nikon or Canon with a long-established methodology, though.



Of course, within a group of companies it gets even trickier, because even the slightest misunderstandings regarding interface protocols may have rather desastrous results, and although camera and optics companies may have worked together on mechanical interfaces in the past, an electric/electronic interface is something completely new to them when it comes to co-operation <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Smile' />.
