Take a look at the lens mount in your OM-X or E-Y body, it has a leaf spring
for each part (dunno what it's called) of the lens which goes into the
mount. The springs ensure that the mount is not "sloppy" or tight. I
haven't seen any of the cheap adapters with this spring type construction
done properly.
