Thank you Leounfortunately no. i think adapter exists for m4/3 cameras -- my gear: E-520+12-60+14-42+70-300+Sigma 105 + FL-50R+EC20 and good amount of legacy lenses (list in profile)

Thank you LeoSony "A"mount lenses are auto-focus lenses, and do not adapt to 4/3 or m4/3 cameras...With the exception of the Olympus special adapter for 4/3 to m4/3 I cant think of any auto-focus lenses you can adapt. -- Larry Lynch Mystic, ConnecticutIn all matters of opinion, our adversaries are insane.

But they still have a focus ring so can be manually focussed. It's quite coarse though, normally only about 1/4 turn from far to near.The adaptors I found for m4/3 have an adjuster to change the aperture - although it's normally set electronically, it stops down mechanically so you can push the arm round to change it.

For m4/3 where there is greater depth in the adapter, there is a ring for opening and closing the aperture though you don't know where exactly it is set.Trevor
