Convert your Olympus camera

Use converters to try out different lenses. I've seen converters for sale on eBay for €15-ish. http://www.cameraquest.com/adapt_olyE1.htm

I have the MF-1 adaptor for OM lenses but recently intrigued by M42 adaptors as I want a 20mm lens to give me an equiv 40mm for street shots...

I'll probably stick with film as a result!

Do you mind me asking where you got the MF-1 adapter.
Have you used it on a Digital SLR, is it worth getting ?

I've bought a different adapter (from eBay via a friend) but I am still awaiting delivery.
I have the Pentax K mount adapter & it works OK with
the 2 non-Oly lenses I have.
Note: it could become another hobby, collecting adapters and trying out diff lenses....!
