OM to Micro 4/3 Adapter, Manual Lens Mount Adapter Olympus Zuiko OM Mount Lens to Micro Four Thirds MFT M4/3 Mount Cameras K&F Concept Lens Adapter
SKU: KF06.145
Got this to enable connection of my Nikon lenses to a Lumix GX9. Not disappointed as I can now use my arsenal of Nikon lenses on a Panasonic camera for a cost of just £20! As expected all these lenses only operate in manual mode as there are no electrical contact between lens and camera. Fortunately, the Lumix got focus peaking which works well most of the time. Aperture settings are a hit and miss affair but results are good most of the time. Impressed with the results using my Nikon 35mm lens (my favourite) even in poor light - super sharp. Also got reasonable results with Nikon 10.5mm fisheye. I considered giving just 4 stars because aperture control becomes poor (this apply to other adapters too), but have to accept this limitation. Would recommend if you can accept the limitations.

For the price this is a very well made bit of kit. I am giving it 5 stars because of the build quality and price. Nikon fit lenses do fit very well indeed but the M43 fit is very tight. But having said that, it means the lens is very secure with no play at all. If you use this on a lens with no f-stop ring then its all guess work - though you can still set the shutter speed and ISO. The ring on the adapter just lightens or darkens the EVF on an Olympus EM1 mark II. But it is a DUMB adapter, with no communication between the lens and camera, so it does exactly what I expected. I wanted to use my Nikon fit Sigma 180mm f2.8 OS macro lens on my EM1 mark II when looking to replace my Nikon system. It did work and I obtained good, detailed images of a bumble bee in flight. But, there are better macro options for my Olympus system and I wil not be using the adapter again. I did try it out on my Nikkor 200 - 500mm f5.6 on my EM1.2 but felt the images appeared somewhat soft.

Cant argue for the price! I love using this for filming with my Panasonic. It would be nice if you could de-click the aperture ring!

These adapters are amazing the the price, with my OM lenses it feels like part of the orig lens, at least as much as an adapter can do, I love them.

At this price point I half expected things to go wrong but a pleasant surprise awaited, the adapter is of a good quality and sturdy, does the job splendidly. I've got a really heavy lens attached and the adapter didn't snap off, very pleased. Having said that, I'll stress, its a full manual adapter, not for a beginner camera users.

I bought this little adapter to put my favourite nikon lenses on micro third camera and record videos. If you planning to make movies this thing gonna be your friend with an option to change the blend on G or D type lenses easily during the recording. The quality of the build is more than satisfying. I wish this would be available with nikon / nikon end!

I bought this adapter to mount an OM lens on my OM-D E-M10 MkII micro 4/3 camera. The Olympus own-brand costs £199 so I tried this as there was no comparison in the prices. I am delighted with the adapter. It is of all-metal construction and both the lens-facing and camera body-facing surfaces are very well machined, so both attach smoothly. There is no rocking at the joints with this combination and the images are excellent. The only point to bear in mind is that focus and aperture must be adjusted manually, as there's no auto-linking across the adapter. This is, however, no chore at all. Why pay more when this unit should suit most users?

Perfect fit as always! K&F - best mount you can get! If you use vintage lenses like me or just want to use different brands - go for K&F mounts, they are really great.
