Four thirds to FD adapter

[Apretext]

Hi, first post, so please be gentle....

I recently sold my father my old Olympus E330, as I had bought myself a Canon 40d, however, he used to be very in to his photography and has a Canon A1 with lots of nice FD lenses.

Obviously, it would be nice if he could use his FD mount lenses on the olympus, but so far I have only found (and purchased for him) a non compensated adapter, which restricts the use of the FD lenses to Macro photography only. Which is better than nothing, but not great.

So, any idea who might make a 4/3 (not Micro 4/3) to FD adapter that will enable inifinte focusing distances?

Ta!!

I have two fd adaptors for my GF1 and both, though manual focus only, allow me to focus wherever I like.

Try SRB Griturn. They seem to be the people who do the most (and best) mount adaptors. IIRC, they buy some in and fettle them to fit both sides properly and machine others. Not the cheapest but apparently worth spending the extra.

Manual focus is fine, as I think all the FD lenses he has are manual focus only anyway.

I'll try SRB Griturn as suggested

Edit: Can't find one on their website, have emailed them to see if they know of one.

2nd Edit: GF-1 unless I'm mistaken is Micro 4/3?

Ah yes, sorry, I misread your post.
