Quick reply there Rand, good to hear that others are still using Pens -
Boris was asking a slightly diferent question though. I haven't ever come
across a PEN F lens to OM body converter, and wonder whether the coverage
of a PEN F lens would be sufficient for full-frame without introducing too
much edge fuzz?
Have been looking for a OM lens to PEN F body converter for some time for
my FT. Currently only have the standard lens and plenty of OM glass to
attach if only the converter was sitting in the gadget bag ;-)
All offers to me off-line please :-)
All the best,
