Default Voigtländer Pentax K to m4/3 adapter + SMC lenses

Having moved from Pentax-land to Oly-land, I thought I should make use of all that old SMC glass I have kicking around...

Here is the Voigtländer Pentax K to m4/3 adapter


E-P1 with Pentax SMC 50mm f2 lens


E-P1 with Pentax SMC 300mm f4 lens (a bit front heavy, eh?)

Comparing the physical size of Minolta M-Rokkor 40/2 & Contax G 45/2:







Minolta M-Rokkor 28/2.8:



Comparing G1+ Summicorn 50/2 and Leica M3 + M-Rokkor 28/2.8:



So far, I have used only the RJ adapters.

What a hoot! My father sent me a 50mm f3.5 Heliar yesterday. Of course, I had to try it on the G1:




By the way, I think it would be a very bad idea to try to collapse this lens on this camera! It is fun to use (feels very old-timey). However, it is best to focus after choosing an aperture because turning the aperture ring can turn the lens and refocus it.
And a quick sample of its work:

I really like this thread, hopefully I'm trying a late 50's Leica 5cm f2.8 M mount collapsible on my G1 today, (if the mount arrives)

Chree!
Thanks lasjas

is that the adapter for a M4/3 to use M mount lenses, (if so I have just bought one)

I came to digital late after a long rest from film cameras, but I have kept all my old Nikon, Canon, Pentax SLR stuff

I have a couple of adapters, (RJ camera):

M4/3 to Nikon F
M4/3 to Leica M - (arriving today)

Planning to buy, (but not just yet - need to see how it goes as I really want a wide, either Panny 17mm or a CV MF lens, which will consume £300 plus)

M4/3 to Canon FD
M4/3 to Pentax K
M4/3 to Pentax screw
