I bought this to enable the use of vintage M42 mount lenses on my Olympus Micro 4/3 camera. It is very well constructed and fits the camera and lens perfectly. I will look to K&F again when I buy a similar adapter for my Nikon and also to use my older Nikon lenses with my Olympus.

K&F is always great product. I always pick this brand first if it’s available and this item does not disappoint.

As many have said this adapter is beautifully engineered and has a solid no-nonsense feel and weight to it. It has its own plastic clip-lid box.This (together with a Nikon G adapter from the same company) was the second I ordered in two days as I found a M42 lens just after I had ordered the Nikon adapter.They are both superb and literally - if you look at the illustration on the box lid - do what the box says they do. In the case of the older screw in lens attachment takes seconds and the installation is firm and solid.A few words of caution however.Your camera and the lens it has available for it have been designed as a system. Everything is balanced in terms of size and weight - things you considered and appealed to you when you bought it.Adding a lens not designed for your camera will throw all out of balance - literally.In addition lens designed and made decades ago were the best they could be for the price at the time. Their performance was often stellar, sometimes rubbish and usually OK.In some ways these lens can be seen as motor cars from the 1960s.You may admire a classic sports car like an E-type Jaguar or similar. You may have had one at the time and remember how it performed or you may simply want to drive one.But the experience may not be as you remember or imagine. Your beautiful head turning sleek car is probably very uncomfortable by today’s standards. You may not be able to find some where to drive it to the maximum. It may become a ‘Sunny Sunday’ car, only coming out when the weather is perfect and sitting in the garage most of the time.Your old lens may be like that sports car.‘Good glass’ optimised for film cameras from years ago may be unforgiving on a digital sensor. Modern focusing aids like peak focusing may not always work. Your idea of getting a cool looking cheap super telephoto lens by using an adapter on a 2x crop sensor in practice may result in a ‘monster’ you can use only in certain specific, limited circumstances.And as stated at the top of this review your camera may feel heavy and unbalanced - something to consider, especially if you have small hands or arthritis.But if you have read this far and are prepared to accept that you may not get an award winning photo first time - or indeed ever - simply want to experiment and at the same time improve or recapture your photographic skills and not rely on your modern digital camera doing all the thinking, then your camera, this adapter and that lens in the garage or cupboard or drawer will get along fine.And best of all you will have fun and may even surprise yourself.

This is a great mount adapter for the m42 screw mount to micro 4/3. It creates a very sturdy connection to the lens and to the camera body. This is a great way to get cheap, high quality glass for micro 4/3 using vintage manual lenses. The only catch is this adapter doesn’t provide for autofocus, but if there are m42 lenses that actually have autofocus then I don’t know about them and they’re few and far between.

Got this adapter for my GH5 to fit some vintage Fujca lens's inherited from my late uncles camera. Build quality is good and the lens is sturdy when mounted. For the cost its a no brainer, id recommend to anyone wanting to use vintage lenses. The only issue I had was on a longer zoom lens ( 130mm ) did not have very good focus range, the focus range was very narrow and could not reach infinity. The 55mm I have also however works great.
Does the job!

This is a perfect solution to using some of my great old 1960s era M42 lenses on my Lumix.
