I have just purchased an Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II 4/3 mirrorless camera and wanted to use some old Pentax K fit SLR telephoto lenses that date from some 30 years ago. When I received this adapter I was very impressed with the build quality - all metal with an excellent finish. The adapter went on and off of my new Olympus camera with the same feel as the Olympus lens and was a nice secure fit and the PK telephoto lenses attached to the adapter with the same snug fit just as they had on my SLR. I could focus the lenses to infinity without a problem. I really can't fault this adapter and it was well worth the money so I can use my old lenses. Just for clarification (in case you are new to this) when using the adapter there is no pass through electronics between lens and camera. I put the Olympus in aperture priority mode and then set the aperture manually on the lens using the aperture ring and the camera selected the best speed. And you have to focus the lenses manually too. Neither of these were a problem for me coming from having use SLR cameras before all the automated gizmos.

With the Pentax Asashi lenses on Panasonic GH4 it does fit very tight and there is no loose play at all. It also keeps things in focus, allows you to focus to infinity and seems rather well sealed - I didn't test it in stormy weather tho.One thing worth noting, it does not have anything electric to it, so you'll have to focus manually.It does feel very intuitive, both the installation and the usage.Strongly recommend if you can't afford the speedbooster.

Does what it says on the tin. Don't particularly appreciate being hounded to leave reviews.

The item looks well made and arrived a day early.Please be aware that all 42mm threads are not the same. This item has a 1mm pitch.There is another 42mm fitting called t2 that has a 0.75mm pitch.I have ordered the wrong one for a Soligor lens.

Great adapter. I had an old Pentax 42mm screw end. This kit worked perfectly to fit it on my new Olympus pen epl7· It looks well built and solid. very happy looks solid. Maybe they could have included some screws to secure the lens.
