I intent to use this lens mount adapter for Olympus P5 and Minolta 50mm F3.5 MD Macro. Can I use focus peaking feature of P5 with this adapter and lens?

Yes, that will work perfectly fine. I use this on my OM-D EM-1 with focus peaking and it's working very well.

Yes, the peak focus is a in camera feature, it does not have to have the lens electrical contacts of a Af to work.
333531
Yes I have the same lens, and you wil get peaking feature, I even used it with the Minolta Bellows 1V for Macro Work with the 50mm 3.5 MD Lens with my Panasonic GH2 Camera, it worked without any problem.

You should be able to. The focus Peaking feature is all in camera and it shouldn't matter what type of glass you have in front of the sensor.

My adapter was used to mount a Minolta MD lens on sony NEX. Works perfectly.

The Minolta adapter has a small lens built in to the adapter. I didn't find this worked as well as the adapters with out an additional lens. I didn't like the results. I used it once.

Hello, As far as we can tell there is no adapter available for this lens in order to shoot macro. Thank you for your interest, UsedPhotoPro

Olympus MMF-3 Four Thirds Lens to Micro Four Thirds Lens Mount Adapter should do it.

The adapter works great. I have not used it with a 60mm macro but have used it with a 105 macro an 85 1.8 and a 300 mm lens.

I use it on an Olympus E-P3 and it works fine. The fit and finish is not as good as my genuine Olympus adapter but that does not matter as I leave the Fotodiox adapter permanently on my OM 50mm f3.5 macro. You will not get image stabilisation on you GF3 so you may need to increase the iso when using OM lenses. Try it, the price is cheap enough.

Well, where I'm from the Minolta series is called Dynax and I have a 700si. The Fotodiox fits very well on the 50mm Macro & 75-300mm zoom lens for my Fuji X-e1.I believe the mount should be the same for the Maxxum series lens.Additional point about this adapter: There are no click stops for aperture. So you're pretty much on your own for deciding what exact aperture you're on between "Lock" & "Open". I guess you can do your own calibration & make markings on the adapter, but the absence of click stops means that you'd have to look at the adapter to make an aperture change. Big bummer...

As long as the bayonet mounting tabs match the minolta MD I would think they would work.I can't say for sure if the mounts are the same for the MC and MD types.You just don't get any auto with the lens. Also the focus is not as crisp with the adapter.They say you can remove the glass from the adapter to get crisp focus but lose the ability to focus closerjust infinity focus.Refer to "http://www.rokkorfiles.com/Lens%20History.html"Refer to "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minolta_SR-mount"

I have the same lense and it works fine. The auto focus and lense mount are compatible. Sony uses the same lense mount that Minolta used. Best of luck.

I have this lens and use it with the Olympus OMD-EM5, it will work with any olympus or panasonic camera with the micro fourthirds lens mount, which includes the E-PL1 and what a lens it really very good at macro and a brilliant portrait lens

Every Minolta MC/MD mount lens will work just fine. If you want to use the 70-210 you will need an adapter.

No. The Micro Four-Thirds mount is smaller than the Four-Thirds mount (as you might guess from the name). You could probably use it along with the Evolt to Micro 4/3 adapter, but I don't know how the extra length might affect focus. I see at least three Micro Four-Thirds T-Mount adapters that will do this in one piece, which are a better option - "RAINBOWIMAGING T2 T Mount lens to Micro 4/3 Four Thirds System Camera Mount Adapter, Olympus PEN" for one.

Yes, I use this adapter with my OM 50mm f/1.4, 28mm f/2.8 and the 35~70mm f/4 zoom lenses. It has a nice snug fit and they all focus to infinity.

Yes, it works fine on Olympus MFT cameras. I've used my 20mm on an E-PM1 and E-PL3 with excellent results.

If you have this adapter. It will let you mount any A mount lens to the camera. You will have manual focus only.

I have the Panasonic G5 and have only used this lens with my G5. Don't know anything about using it with the Olympus.
