Does not work with all M4/3 bodies

I bought this adapter to use my 40mm Planar and 90mm Sonnar in my micro 4/3 bodies. It mounts fine on a GF3 and an E-P1, but removing the adapter is a problem because the lever to remove the lens from the adapter is positioned exactly above the lens release button of the camera bodies. It gets a lot worse with the mode sophisticated bodies: it will not mount at all on a G3 or a G5, and will scratch the surface of the protruding top of the Oly E-M5! Other problems: 1. The lever to remove the Contax G lens is poorly designed. It takes a lot of finagling and twisting to remove the lens. 2. The focusing mechanism is very rough, making it very difficult to get perfect focus. I am returning it, of course.
