  • 40-150mm 4/3 lens

    Hi, can anyone confirm that this lens will autofocus on my EM-1 using an Olympus adapter? Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks, Lee.

        By adapter, I presume you mean one of the MMF's from Oly. There are clones available on Ebay for half the cost of the Oly versions and these will be fine with the lens. Not good for WA lenses though (less than 12mm) as distortion can creep into the corners.

          Hi, yes I will be using an oly converter. This will be the first 4/3 lens I've used. I see you have the 50-200 lens, how does it perform on the EM-1?
          Cheers, Lee.

            Distortion? The MMF adapters have no optics?
