Works as well as the expensive adapters

I purchased similar adapter mounts for other systems for over $ 200 when the 4:3s systems came out. This mount works just as well for a fraction of the cost. I've used it on my Leica Digilux 3, Olympus 520 and E3. Since my lenses are manual focus, I focus it wide open and then step down for the depth of field I want on Aperture Priority, metering. I check the image (like a Polaroid in the old days of film) adjust my exposure or bracket and enjoy the results. It has given new life to my collection of OM lenses with my telephotos benefiting the most. Due to optical physics, a normal 50mm f 1.4 has the speed of a 100mm f 1.4 but the depth of field of a 100mm f 2.8 lens in 35mm format. This becomes even more useful for macro lenses! Enjoy!

works as well as the expensive adapters

These adapters work as well as the expensive versions. They allow me to use my old Olympus manual focus lenses on my Olympus and Panasonic micro 4:3s cameras. Remember that the smaller camera sensors won't allow the shallow depth of field as the larger sensors. which is good for some photographic applications, like macro photography but not for others like some portraits. Be sure to focus with your lens at its largest aperture and then stop down for your intended depth of field. I also suggest using manual exposure to get the exact light values that you want.
