Many of the smaller digital cameras don't have a lens cap. Instead, there are
2 halves of an "iris" (for lack of a better term), located over the outermost
glass lens, that separate when the camera is powered on, and slide back
together when it's turned off.
What is the mechanism for these shutters? Are they gear-driven? Does it
typically require complete lens disassembly to get to them? Are they easily
removable (replacing them seems not economical)?
Thanks,

Please, no "Go Google this" replies. I wouldn't
ask a question here if I hadn't done that already.
