I was delighted to find this product so that I can use my old OM lenses with my new E-410. No discernable loss of image quality, works with all my old lenses for my OM-1

Comments about Olympus Olympus MF-1 Lens Adapter, Permits the Adaption of Certain OM lenses to be used with the E-1, Evolt E-300, E-410 and E-500 Digital Cameras.:

Zuiko film lenses are wonderful, and if you have any and want to use them with your E-series camera, then this is the least expensive way to continue to use your film investment. I've used it with the E-300 and the E-3, and it allows, with certain limitations, to use non-digital lenses.

Comments about Olympus Olympus MF-1 Lens Adapter, Permits the Adaption of Certain OM lenses to be used with the E-1, Evolt E-300, E-410 and E-500 Digital Cameras.:

This adaptor extended my 500mm mirror lens to where it cannot focus at all in all planes. Either vertical lines focused or horizontal lines focused, but never did they both focus at the same time - save your money for new 4/3 lenses instead.

Comments about Olympus Olympus MF-1 Lens Adapter, Permits the Adaption of Certain OM lenses to be used with the E-1, Evolt E-300, E-410 and E-500 Digital Cameras.:

Having used Olympus SLR's for almost 30 years, I have a few lenses from that system. This allows me to add these to my digital system. I've used it with 50mm 1,4, 50mm 3.5 macro, and 300mm 4.5 mainly. But there are other lenses available on the used market to expand your options. I've been able to add my E1 to my T-mount telescope for some great moon shots.
