Is this compatible with Panasonic m43 lenses? Does the autofocus work with those lenses?

Hello,The Olympus and Panasonic micro four thirds systems are on the same platform. All the lenses for both systems are fully compatible to one another.Regards,RoozbehOC camera949-347-1276

It works with my Canon EF-S 18-55mm kit lens, and my EF 70-200mm f/4 IS USM. The auto-focus is a little slow, and can hunt on low contrast scenes, but it does work.

Choose Sony NEX mount (you may have Micro Four Thirds selected which is for Panasonic/Olympus m43 mount cameras)

Sure. That is one of the main advantages of micro 4/3 system. All micro 4/3 lenses will work with any micro 4/3 camera.It is said that Panasonic cameras will be able to get a bit more from Panasonic lenses, and Olympus cameras from Olympus lenses, in terms of firmware correction (such as geometric distortion or vignetting), but they are said to be very subtle, though. Basic correction will work, as Autofocus, and almost everything.I have, for instance, an Olympus 45mm f.18 lens that is probably my favorite lens (wonderful for portraits), and works perfectly with my Panasonic GH2.

yes, it will work on all m43 format cameras from panasonic, including g6, probably the sharpest out there

This adapter is for EF lens to M43 mount only. I'm not sure if M43 lens to EF body exist, sorry.If they do, keep in mind that Canon EOS sensors are much bigger than M43 and you will end up with big vignetting (opposite of cropping).

Yes of course, it also have in-body stabilization, so no problem with a m43 zoom (I have it and it's fantastic). Nevertheless, have a look at this first review, comparing real result with OMD-5. Looking the results, maybe you can rethink what to buy, specially now that OMD is for sale. http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/image-comparison/fullscreen?attr18=daylight&attr13_0=panasonic_dmcgx7&attr13_1=oly_em5&attr15_0=jpeg&attr15_1=jpeg&attr16_0=200&attr16_1=200&normalization=full&widget=7&x=0.1804539138490041&y=0.1535367545076283

Yes, with the Canon m42 adapter, it works perfect. It's a great lens, one of the SMC Takumar classics.

Amazon asked that I reply to you so I guess I must.I sold this lens and the Panasonic camera about 4 years ago. It did not do much for me. I am much happier with a good DSLR and telephoto lenses. Sorry I cannot be of more help.

Yes, I use a variety of my Nikon F Mount lenses (AF-D, AI-S, G, etc) on a Panasonic GH3 by using this adapter (GH4 works the same way). It increases the F stop and reduces the crop factor for going from full frame to m43. Note- there is no autofocus and no aperture control via the camera though. You can control exposure using the aperture ring on the metabones adapter and the metering in the camera will tell you if you are properly exposed. While the GH3 doesn't have focus peaking the GH4 does, which should greatly help you with manual focusing using this adapter.

It is compatable with my Sony a65. It should be compatable with a77 also, having same menu for shutter opening without lens getting ENABLED, and with manual mode with manual focus setup. The exposure is controlled with by using histogram and exposure scale display. But no auto focus, no aperture control. I use it with old manual focus lenses with further adding lens adapters, enabling me to varry the apperture and focus manually.. Hope this is satisfactory.

I use this lens with Panasonic Lumix GX1 and it works perfectly well. Pictures are sharp with no flares or other aberrations. Should work with GH3 as well.

No. Use one or the other; i.e. turn off the Panasonic IS in the lens and use the in-body Olympus IS. You don't want two computers (yes, M43 lenses have computers in them) both trying to make corrections at the same time. Other than that suggestion, there is no problem using Panasonic lenses on this camera.

The one I have specifically says it will work with my Nikon. However when googled I came up with this one http://www.amazon.com/Opteka-Professional-Digital-Camera-Lenses/dp/B001A5IBCI; which appears to be the same one and will work with the Panasonic. Hope this helped you.

No, the filter thread size is different. The only lenses Panasonic lists as compatible are the H-PS14042.

Yes it should. The DMC-GF3KK a micro four thirds interchangeable lens camera and therefore will be able to accept all micro four third lenses. In fact according to one review... "Panasonic has put a lot of work in on this [auto focus] and the GF3 is claimed to focus in just 0.18 sec (approx) with the LUMIX G VARIO HD 14-140mm f/4.0-5.8 ASPH. MEGA O.I.S. lens mounted (www.techradar.com).

It's working fine with the autofocus mode on your lens, would also work with the manual focus but you would have to preset the focus on the lens. Michael
