@martijnbraam Nice progress! I looked into hackability of the MFT protocol in the past. You probably already know of it, but there has been some reverse-engineering of the protocol https://marcuswolschon.blogspot.com/2013/12/reverse-engineering-micro-four-thirds.html So the RPi 5" screen is landscape-oriented? Regarding the electronic C-mount, if there isn't already a standard connection, perhaps a power+serial connector cable could do as a generic hackable interface, meaning a dangling cable and motor drivers in the lens body.

@nicorikken I've seen some RE efforts for the MFT mount yes, I have not yet tried hooking up a logic analyzer to mine though.
The official raspberry pi 5" screen v2 is portrait orientation (720x1280). The one I'm using now is from waveshare and is 1024x600, so landscape orientation so I can have the video stream fully hardware accelerated.
