Can I use my old lenses for e-510 on this camera?

Yes, both are four-thirds cameras. If you get a new Oly micro-Four-Thirds (i.e., a Pen or an OMD) you will need an adapter. The micro-Four-Thirds will focus Four-Thirds lenses (i.e. for the 510 or 620) a lot slower unless you have the new EM-1.

Absolutely yes! And many more with a simples adaptor the E620 still an amazing camera's for today and years to come!

from what i know, yes the lenses are interchangable. i would do a little research to see if the insert is the same size and same lock. Also the E620 is an amazing camera, cant find anything it cant do.

Hi! you can use any FD to EOS adaptors. Of course you have to set the F/stop and focus yourself. Some of these adaptors work better than others. The adaptors from Fotodiox are much better made. They cost a little more but you will get no play with the lens on the adaptor. Hint, Mount the adaptor to the lens then the whole unit to the body. Make sure you have the index marks lined correctly or they lens or the adaptor will get stuck.. A little practice any they will be as sharp as the autofocus lenses...

Thanks for all of the feedback. I bought the E-510 about month ago and it has been great. I am glad I went with the two lens kit for $650 on amazon. Its great to have both lenses. The E-510 is proving to be a great camera.

I don't think so. I've been trying to buy one for several years based on my daughters experience with the D5100 camera she owns. She loves it and went from a real novice to an amateur where she now takes pictures semi professionally. If she can do so can the rest of us. One warning. I had a Nikon before and hoped to reuse the lenses. Not all old lenses are compatible with the D5100. I'm selling my old lenses and bought a new one.

The entire functionality should work on a 5100. It worked on my D100, which is WAYYYYY older than your 5100.

I would say not unless you changed the lens. the EOSM has a 22mm lens and the 52 is for bigger lenses

You should be able to. This lens is a micro 4/3 mount and will fit any camera of that format.

I believe the 5100 is compatible with DX lenses. As far as quality, I use my with a D90 and shot thousnads of photos with it and been more than happy with the results I've gotten from it.

It's not a matter of what camera you're using. The thing to consider is the filter diameter (52 mm, 62 mm, 72 mm, etc) of the lenses of the camera you're currently using.

The 520 seems nice but, I think I'll go with the e-510 when I get a back up. Olympus has the best lenses in my opinion.

I think only the MF-1 "OM lens adaptor" will work with the E-620. The MF-2 is designed for the mirrorless micro four thirds cameras, like the E-PL1, and not the E-620. I have used the MF-1 with old manual focus OM-system lenses and I was very pleased with the results. You need to understand, though, that you have to set the aperture manually and focus manually also. I have a few sample shots taken with the MF-1 and E-300 at http://www.pbase.com/benparker5/olympus_e-300 if you are interested.

Lenses you cannot; with these camera you actually don't need any more lenses accessories yes! Hope this helps!

Yes.. your camera uses the EF and EFS lens.... practice your manual operation of your camera to get the best results... Happy Shooting

Not familiar with Olympus E 510 lens - this is a good adaptor I use for my 1970's Olympus OM1 Zuiko manual lenses on Sony E mount camera,s

No. You will have to buy the one for the E mount. It's the same lens, but with a different mount.Al

Both the prevoius guys are correct, you have to find the diameter of your lense. I strongly doing this asap, Not for effect but for protection... a lesson I learned the hard way, I scratched my Nikkor lense and it is over 300.00 to fix (OUCH) the 510 looks to be a 67mm but do the reaserch to be sure..

Unfortunately, the older lenses would not work with this camera body. This particular camera requires Micro Four Thirds mount lenses.
