JJC TCR-40S Silver 40cm Threaded Cable Release, Mechanical Shutter Release Cable, Bulb-Lock Design for Long exposures

This adapter fits snugly, is easy to use, and provides an accurate infinity focus for the two lenses I have used with it. I'm very happy to be able to use my Rokkor 55mm f/1.7 which is a beautiful lens that produces pinpoint images corner-to-corner, even when wide open at f/1.7. An equivalent lens made for the micro four thirds (MFT) camera would cost around $500. I also have a 200mm f/3.5 Vivitar which was never that sharp in the corners at f/3.5, but with the half-size format of the MFT, it too looks like a $500 lens. The downside, of course, is that you must manually focus and set f/stop. Also, if your couple to the Panasonic MFT, you won't have image stabilization available. You still would have it on an Olympus, which has in-camera stabilization. If you have some old lenses that you don't use anymore, resurrect them with this adapter (adapters for other cameras to micro four thirds are also available).

It focuses just a hair past infinity. Overall the build quality is very acceptable. I have gotten a lot of use out of this and do not regret the purchase at all.the mount on the adapter was loose when I got it to the point that it was useless because it wobbled. It also prevented it from being used with my tripod. I eventually got a small enough screw driver just to take it off. Most if not all of my lenses are light enough that I am not worried about stressing the mount on the camera.

I am very happy with the product and with a lot of use it has not shown any signs of wear or failure. I do find that the lens to adapter interface on my copy is rather tight when putting on and removing lenses. That's better than being loose but it makes it hard for lenses like the 28mm 2.8 that don't have any fixed space to get a grip on to be attached without applying more force that I am comfortable with. Regardless, I would buy the same unit again however.

Works as advertised. Initially had a slight imperfection in the casting where it mounts to the M43. A slight filing for a couple of seconds removed it. I also bought the Fotodiox Canon FD to M43 adapter. That seems slightly better quality, but it's close, they both do the job. I now can use my old Minolta MC legacy glass. Compared to native lenses, legacy glass gives me the feeling of being involved in the process.

I used this to mount my old Minolta MD mount lenses to my Blackmagic pocket cinema camera it works well. Its sturdy and fits snug with no light leaks and mounts lenses and camera nicely. It focuses slightly past infinity, but that was expected based on other reviews I read. I wish it had a rear cap included but it's certainl.y not a deal breaker.

My dad had an Minolta Single lens Reflex camera and some lenses. It is a film camera which I no longer use. Some of these lenses are well thought of optically. Since I have gotten several micro four thirds cameras, this lens adapter is ideal. I recommend the Olympus micro four thirds cameras,for example the E-PL5, since they have image stabilization built into the camera. All Panasonic micro four thirds cameras will also work well. You simply attach the adapter to the camera and attach the lens. Shoot on A priority mode. You do have to manually focus and at times you need to adjust the exposure compensation. If you don't have any lenses you can buy them at bargain prices.

This product looks delicate in the hand, but works well. Tried on a Olympus 35SP, Pentax Spotmatic and Mamiya RB67 and do the job.

I use this with a lens made by Gemini for a Minolta SRT-101 on my E-PL5. The lens is a 80-200mm zoom and this adapter allows it to focus past infinity, especially at the 200mm end, so I have to take my time with it. I can't complain, because I got the lens 12 years ago for $40 used and allows me to reach way out there. I also have a 58mm lens still on the SRT-101, but I haven't done much with it since getting the m43.
