Will the 14-42mm lens IS work on any camera?
2020758
NO..... as of now the only one's I know of are, Panasonic Plastic Kit Mount14-42mm, f3.5-5.6,OIS, Micro Four Thirds Lens - Plastic Kit Mount. WORKS WITH :DMC-GF1K-K, DMC-G2R, DMC-GH1K-Body-Only, DMC-G10K,DMC-GH2S-Body-Only, DMC-GF1C-K, DMC-G2A, DMC-GH2K-Body-Only, DMC-G2K, DMC-GH1K I hope this answers your question.

yes and no.Simple answer - this is a Micro Four Thirds lens and only works with cameras that accept Micro Four Thirds lenses.BUT it can be used on certain cameras with a converting adapter but it will only work manually (no auto focus etc. and you may get vignetting). Best idea is to find out what type of lenses your camera accepts and go from there.

Any micro 4/3rd cameras... You could probably mount it on a non m43 camera with an adapter but its performance would be dismal.

No. Only Panasonic cameras. However, if you use Olympus micro 4/3, the IS is built in the sensor so you will have IS regardless of lens used.

Just to clarify my answer: you can use Panasonic IS on Olympus. Micro 4/3 lenses are compatible. With Olympus sensor image stabilization also on, you will get a conflict. You can certain try it to see the effect of double image stabilization. I own an Olympus EPL3 and a Panasonic Lumix GX1. I always turn off lens IS if I use Panasonic lens on my Oly.

Yes. It works with any lens having a 58mm filter thread -like the Nikon 50mm f/1.8G- and any camera with a Nikon F-mount.Remember that the operation will be totally manual.

The GFC-1 works with the 14mm end of your 14-42GX lens. When you attach the proper adapter (the 37mm for the 14-42) to the GFC-1, you will think that it does not fit and become frustrated. Fear not. It is just a very tight fit and you will have to exert some effort in turning the adapter ring onto the GFC-1. The adapter you will not be using is the 46mm. I use that one with my 14 f2.5 lens (a very nice lens to have, if you do not have one already). So, the short answer is that the unit works only with the 14mm end of your lens and not with the zoomed focal lengths between 14 and 42.

I only use this adapter on my 18 to 55 lens, and I got some excellent results. So it should fit just fine with a 14-44mm.

its a completely manual lens, itll work with any camera. But i would go for another model thats not manual in the operation. You need two hands to operate this lens. Other than that, its a cool little thing to play around with.

check with B & H Photo perhaps they can answer your question.Also Panasonic has tech specification on their web site. I googled & found this several months ago.The specs specify which lenses this wide angle adapter works for my 14mm lens and one other.If you use it w/ the specified zoom lens, it must be used at the "Wide" end of the range.

The kit 14-42 is the version 2 and therefore on a par with the well regarded 14-45. The photos should be very sharp and clear. Of course, the lens is only part of the story. It is necessary to learn to use the camera body to get the best results.

The lens is threaded for a 37mm filter of any kind. So Yes. See: http://www.getolympus.com/us/en/m-zuiko-14-42mm-f3-5-5-6-ii.html

Yes. This lens should auto focus on any Nikon Digital SLR. The issue for you is the focal length. A D5200 has an APS-C sensor and the 14mm lens is designed for full frame sensors. That means if you put this lens on a DX body (which is what the D5200 is) there will be a magnification factor of 1.5, so the 14m becomes a 21 mm lens. If you want to shoot ultra wide images with your DX body, take a look at the Nikon 10.5mm DX lens or the Nikon 10-24mm DX zoom lens. They are a lot more affordable and you'll get a lot closer to the wide angle view afforded by this 14mm (when its mounted on a full frame sensor body) than if you mount the 14mm on the D5200.

It depends on the lens, not the camera. This product doesn't include a lens. If you have the 14-42mm kit lens the 52mm should fit. Each lens has different sizing though. I do know a 37mm filter will fit on an Olympus 45mm f1.8, otherwise you'll have to check each lens individually.

Absolutely. The lens is full frame format and thus it works on any camera using the standard Nikon lens mount. BTW, it is a great lens.

Look at the size of the ring adapters. Look at the filter size that your lens takes. Since this set comes so many adapters... yes it will work. But at the price for this set, you really do get what you pay for. I used this set only once.

It depends in your lens. As long as it accepts a 58mm filter, it should work. But just remember you have to focus manually. Make sure it accepts 58 mm filter and your lens must have manual focus.

It depends entirely on what LENS you are using, not the camera ... on the 14mm Panasonic lens, yes, it works fine (I use it on mine and I used the lens on a GX1).

Filter diameters specified for filters/lenses should be universal. So, yes, it should work if it accepts 58 mm filters.

Hi, You say you have the 14-42, indicating that you have a Micro 4/3 camera, either Olympus or Panasonic Lumix. The lens is designed for use on a 4/3 camera and will require an adapter to work on your camera. As one of the other people said, it will not let you get in close for things like flower photography, it is more of a telephoto zoom that lets you bring distant objects closer. It is a big lens but a sharp lens. If your object is to get very close, the Olympus 60mm f/2.8 Macro is a beautiful, sharp lens. Good luck.

It will work with the brand you sulect, the brand will use the same connections just like any of the lenses you can buy.
