Trick to enable manual iris control
The only trick was how to ensure the FD lens aperture can be controlled by the lens vs stuck at a certain f-stop. It isn't clear from the instructions, but to maintain the ability to control the iris from the lens' aperture ring, you have to align the WHITE dot on the adaptor with the red dot of the lens. If you mount white dot to white dot, you will not have the ability to control the iris with the aperture control ring on the camera. I had to watch this video to figure it out, as this wasn't clear on the instructions:
It works Great
Novoflex Canon FD to Micro Four Thirds Lens Adapter - I got this adapter to go with my Lumix GH2K. It's a bit pricey for ring of metal, but it's precision made and fits snug to the camera and to my lenses. You could go cheaper, but I've read the horror stories and didn't want to risk dinging up my new camera or f/1.2 lenses. It's a quality product. If you can afford it, you won't go wrong.... I've ordered equipment from B&H for years; you won't find a more reputable company.
