Canon FD Lens to Micro Four Thirds M4/3 Olympus Pen and Panasonic Lumix Cameras Lens Mount Adapter Ring
SKU: KF06.091
This adapter works well, and has opened up a range of new lenses for my micro four thirds camera. The only knock I have against it is the aperture adjustment ring. Why does it have one? I prefer the one on the actual lense because it says what f stop I am using. Also, when removing the lens from the adapter, it is hard to grip and I am tempted to turn using the aperture ring. Which I don't think is good. It almost feels as though you would have 1 ring per lens, because removing the whole assembly is going to be easier that removing just the lens.

Vraiment très content de se produit , il n'y a aucun jeu de lumière entre l'objectif et l'adaptateur , je recommande vraiment !

Worth its price, metal, good workmanship and fitty. The inner surface of the black paint semi-glossy, in the future should have a matte black. I recommend the product.

Arrived very quickly. Items as expected and seem well made. I tried the Canon fd to mft adapter with my Panasonic GX80 and a Canon 35-70 FD lens. No problems at all. Very pleased and would definitely recommend supplier to other people. (If thinking of buying, bear in mind that all settings are manual when using this adapter...no auto focus or exposure.)

Extremely well engineered converter with good heft, a solid feel and a pleasing to use aperture ring. I can now use my old Nikkor lenses on my M43 camera, so I'm happy. My only slight criticism is it didn't fit on my camera initially. Close inspection revealed that the two tension springs were too strong but after a little fine tuning it now fits perfectly. I'd recommend this to anyone wanting to use their Nikon lenses.

Surpassed expectations.I bought this without much real belief it would work. Just obtained a tamron 150-600 G2 lens for my older Nikon D300s and started to wonder if I could use the lens with my Olympus Pen-F which has much higher pixel rating and a crop factor of x2. It also has inbody IS.This works absolutely brilliantly! Obviously needs manual focussing which is assisted by the Peak focus tech in the olympus but has now given me an equivalent of 1200mm reach.Very well made and an absolutely snug fit to both the lens and the camera body.

This adaptor is of good quality,fits the lenses well,but there are no instructions whatsoever on how to attach it to the lenses.It was initially a very frustrating purchases,as I could not figure out how to fit the lenses to the adaptor.Even You tube videos did not make it clear. I very nearly threw the adaptor away in frustration and anger.It was only after many days searching the internet that I found the answer on the Photo.net forums.Which is that,' The raised red index button on the outside of the lens must be aligned with the red dot on the flat circular plate on the back of the lens (i.e., the plate in which the various aperture levers are located). If these are not aligned on your lens, rotate the inner portion of the back of the lens counterclockwise while pushing in the chrome lens lock button. The back of the lens should click into position when the red index button and red dot line up.' Had I not found this information I would have thrown the adaptor away,and moved away from Canon lenses altogether.

I am extremely impressed with the quality of these adapters. I have 5 now, and while they might be a couple of pound more expensive than some others found on ebay, when you hold them in your hand, you know you're getting good value. They are all precision machined metal, with high quality finishes, and the control rings on adapters that have them, have a very satisfying action to them.For dumb adapters (ones without electrical contacts for modern lenses), getting anything more expensive than these adapters is a waste of money. They do everything you need and couldn't possibly feel more sturdy or satisfying to use in my opinion.Note: if you want an adapter for a nikon ai lens, the nikon G adapter also works, the aperture ring just doesn't do anything. I use the one adapter for both ai and g lenses.
