Lens Mount Adapter Ring for Canon FD Lens to Micro Four Thirds M4/3 Olympus Pen and Panasonic Lumix Cameras
SKU: KF06.091
Good quality kit for the price. Took some time to work out mounting as there were no instructions with the package or on the website. Same issue with the use of the Lock/Open ring. I set towards Open (ironically with Lock at top centre position) for mounting, then in the Lock direction (with Open in the top centre position) to use, which allows full aperture composing and exposure setting. In use all works well, but there is a bit of sloppiness in the adapter when rotating the aperture ring which I put down to the cranky FD mount. A good cheap way to extend a MFT lens collection - a Canon 50mm 1.8 has given me a fast 100mm telephoto where the quality exceeds the 14-42 kit lens that came with the OMD EM10 II. Cool.

This is a really well made adaptor - metal front and back - so looks like it'll last a while. I bought the Canonf FD-m43 adaptor - and it came with no instructions at all - so I had to search online for the right way to fit an FD lens on it......basically you need to turn the OPEN-CLOSE ring so that the CLOSE text it at the top of the ring.....mount the lens......and the move it to OPEN to operate at full aperture .... and then remebering to move to CLOSE so the aperture stops down before you take the shot. This sounds like a real faff but it isnt - it very straightforward ! I've tried this with a Canon FDn 300mm lens and a 50nn f1.8 FD breechlock lens - and it's worked faultlessly with both. i would definitely by a K&F Concept adaptor again - probably the M42 and Pentax PK ones.

Does exactly what it should has a very high build quality, I am using it on a lumix gx7 with a canon fd f1.8 50mm lens.

Works well, and feels solid and well made. All lines up as it should on the mount, and focuses to infinity (possibly slightly beyond; I may tweak this a little). One thing to note is that there's no stop-down button, just a fixed ring to hold the pin in, so you can't use the preset apreture on most lenses.
