20× L IS Zoom Lens XL
Hi Team, is there any parameter or setting any binary data hex or ascii codes to control the above mentioned Lens.
i need to control Lens - Zoom, Auto focus, Aperture using Arduino nano or Rpi.
i have usb camera Arducam, i have developed adapter for it, but the lens which I'm using has no control on my side.
please suggest me how do i control it.

Greetings,
The forum is intended to support Canon products. Unless someone has direct experience with a Arducam?
What lens is this... 20× L IS Zoom Lens XL ???
I think you may need to visit the developers forum to discuss software SDK

The XL2 was retired in 2017. That means all development also ceased.
You can see all of the developer tools that are available HERE.
