  1. I know I'm a new guy here but I've been over at PV for some time now. Anyways, I'm going to jump on in here. @Joe Skinner You don't need to worry about that adapter problem with a MFT camera. You can purchase any cheap, piece of crap adapter from Ebay and it will work...well sort of. I've tested about every damn adapter out there and I use only Nikon mount lens on my GH2, besides the MFT mount glass and I have a buttload of crap adapters here. I found one that was cheap and worked well, controlled the iris, focused to infinity with the Tokina 11-16 and had a tripod mount from Ebay but it didn't focus to infinity at all focul lengths on my Tokina 28-70. Finally I said enough is enough and had to stop the bleeding. I scooped up a Novaflex adapter for $200 and couldn't be happier. It's solid as a rock, focuses to infinity on every damn piece of glass from and manufacture and any era like a gem. Another thing that is nice on the Novaflex is the apature control is dampened, which means your iris will not slip on you if you go handheld or something like that. Mine did a couple times. Also, the Kipon is a good one too. Some people get lucky with the cheap Ebay ones, some don't. I got tired of playing russian roulette and just bit the bullet. Hope that helps if you're still watching the thread.
