Hi Philippe!
I am considering adding one of the new OM-D MFT cameras to my stable. Thus, I
am considering the adapter to my current FT lenses. Yes, I know they are
larger, but they also offer a 200mm (400 eq. c/f) f2.8 lens that I love. I
would also buy a set of smaller, appropriately sized lenses for travel.
But, I'd also like to use my older lenses on the 16mp body. Only time will
tell if this is truly a practical idea. Of course, first I have to *find* an
OM-D that I can look at, and see just how good (or not) the EVF is. And that,
my friend, is proving difficult in my area.
Cheers!
David.
