    Olympus PL1 Camera with Canon FD Lenses

    Can I use Canon FD lenses with my Olympus PL1? I know that there are a number of adaptors available for micro four thirds cameras, but will they work with the PL1? Has a PL1 owner used non-micro four thirds lenses? Thanks

    You will probably have to have two adapters. Canon to 4/3rd and 4/3rd to m4/3.

    I think that this would do it.

    There is also this one that allows you to 'shift' the lens - might be interesting.

    Good find Terry. I have used several adapters over time I am currently waiting on one that will fit a Pentax 50mm f/2 to my E3. I will post the results if I ever get it.
