bob_king2 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 <p>Hi all</p> <p>I've finally "bitten the bullet" and ordered a twin lens E-PL2 kit from B&H. Now I have a number of old film Oly OM primes which I still use on my OM bodies and EOS digitals with an adapter. What I want to know is whether there is an adapter that will allow me to directly mount OM lenses on micro 4/3 bodies? I know there are such adapters that will mount OM lenses to regular 4/3 SLRs and that there are adapters to mount 4/3 SLR lenses on micro 4/3 bodies, but what about a direct OM to micro 4/3?</p> <p>Any heads up would be appreciated.</p> <p>Cheers, Bob</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aoresteen Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 <p>Yes there is. I got one off of eBay from a seller in Asia.</p> <p>Check out item 220734109389 on the bay. $17 shipped from Hong Kong</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george_shihanian Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 <p>Be careful with those cheap Chinese made adapters. Many times they wobble or don't feel "locked" when mounted. I've been very pleased with Fotodiox brand adapters, $39. <Fotodiox.com> The ones from Olympus can cost $149!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjferron Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 <p>Mine is the Olympus brand model and it works great.<br> I also have the Fotodiox Nikon to M4/3 and have no complaints with that as well.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
