Nathan,
I expect you're right in principle (have both the oly OM-4/3 & Pen-OM
adapters, good quality but quite expensive in their day).
Trouble is by the time you add shipping & customs (US to UK) the one from
cameraquest is not much less than the "official" offering.
Warehouse Express has it at £153.99... (which is more than half the price of
the camera itself).
Think I'll take a punt on a £19.99 version from Hong Kong, might work well
enough.
Regards - Martyn

My experience with adapters is that you get what you pay for...
Check Stephen Gandy, www.cameraquest.com
