Hi,

Im wondering if anyone can help?

I am working on a project at the moment, and ideally I want to use a moveable length tube. My thoughts were to use a camera lens body, and wondered if such a thing exists that effectively has some sort of built in motor that would adjust the length of the body if I was to control it myself.

Does that make sense? If there is a UK company that makes these so I just need to buy the body and not the lenses etc.

Many thanks

Yes it is just the lens body I need. Or something else, but it needs to be motorised in some form or another. I want to use it as an air pipe, so don't need the actual lens in there.

Quite a few motorbikes have variable length intakes inside the air box, is that more the sort of thing you're looking for?
Yes...Out of curiosity do you know which bikes?

Cheers
