Questions & Answers

Richard S : Will this adapter work with the Panasonic GH5?DENNIS G : Absolutly!GERALD M : While I’m an Olympus user it should make no difference as this adapter is compatible with all Micro 4/3rds Cameras. There is no difference in the micro 4/3rds lens mounts between brands.STEVE W : Yes, the GH5 is a micro four thirds camera and this will allow you to use other lens that are not MFT. Best compatible lenses are from Olympus.
Shopper : can i use this with a panasonic AG-AF100 and olympus micro 4/3 lenses?RONALD C : This adapter is used to mount Olympus and Panasonic 4/3rd lens to a micro 4/3rd body( Olympus Pen, Panasonic G1-G3, as examples). Not familiar with an AG-AF100 lens? If it is a 4/3rd lens then it will work with this adapter. Olympus micro 4/3rd lens do not need this adapter as they fit directly onto a micro 4/3 rd body. Olympus uses in body image stabilization while Panasonic puts image stabilization in their lenses.DAVID T : I use this with the AF-100 and an Olympus 4/3rds lens. a "MICRO" 4/3 lens would fit directly to the AF 100. It's a well made piece.DAVID T : YES! I use it on the AF-100. Its a well made piece.RYAN L : I cannot comment on how this product will work on your particular camera and lens setup, but it works great to mount STANDARD 4/3 lenses on MICRO 4/3 bodies. I use panasonic lenses on the G1, G2 and GF2 all with great results.PAUL C : Allow me to amend my answer. The AG-AF100 is a micro four thirds video recorder from Panasonic. You can attach any Olympus or Panasonic Micro four thirds lens without an adapter. Ignore my previous answer. I thought the AG-AF100 was a Four Thirds video recorder.PAUL C : No. This adapter works with Micro Four Thirds bodies and Four Thirds lenses. It will not couple Four Thirds bodies to Micro Four Thirds lenses.ERNEST S : YES. Thats why I bought it.VALDO K : The Lumix adapter is used to mount standard 4/3 lenses to the micro 4/3 bodies. I use the Lumix brand adapter on my Olympus m4/3 E-P2 camera. I've had no trouble using it with 8 different Olympus lenses and a Lensbaby! As the question was posed, Olympus and Panasonic/Lumix brand Micro4/3 lenses and bodies are interchangeable without any adapter! Great quality, fear not!
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?RONALD C : Well made and cheaper than the Olympus equivalent.

GREAT! recommended

Just bought this from adorama and I am very pleased w/ my purchase.. for a while i've been going back and forth of either getting this or the Olympus mmf 1,2,3.. to put on my Olympus Epl-1.. you would think you would want a Olympus on olypmus brand, however you cant deny the price and the great reviews on this~ finally decided to pick it up and i am very happy. The auto focus speed was alot better than i expected.. in day light you have no problem (you wouldnt even notice a difference honestly), but in indoor light, i was very impressed at how quick it was.. not stellar but def. alot better than expected. nothing much more to say, it works, its cheaper, get it over olympus

Expensive, but I needed it

I use this adapter on a Lumix DMC-GH2 with an Olympus 50mm f/2.0 four thirds lens. I needed the adapter because I got a good deal on a used four thirds lens. Coupling feels solid. Product appears well made. My GH2 can fully operate the four thirds lens, however autofocus is slow. I tend to use the lens for macro and portraits with manual focus. My only complaint is, for what it is, it's expensive, but it's cheaper than what Olympus offers.

Does what it says on the box

Tight fit on Olympus bodies, just like using Panasonic lenses really. Cheaper than the Olympus adapter.
