Does anyone know if there is a comprehensive guide anywhere on the internet that details all the adapters you can get for the GF-1 4/3 camera and what lenses will work with them? Manual focus is fine.
 
All i do is find a decent lens i fancy on the bay of e, then search in the Adapters section and look for a suitable adapter for that lens. So far there has been an adapter for just about every lens i have been interested in.

Shame most are in Hong Kong/China/USA and take a while to arrive!
 
I've got one of the elcheapo Canon FD adapters, I'll bring it along on Sunday and you can try the Canon 50mm f/1.4 on it

Have a shifty through this forum too :thumbs:
 
I've ordered a Canon FD adaptor and the 50/1.4.

Also got a bit carried away and ordered a couple of old zoom lenses that will probably be really silly and impractical on the the GF1 :)
 
I need to get a nice fast lens, like a 1.8 or something, old school preferably. Thanks for all the links so far.
 
Canon FD lenses are very good but do look huge!

I run a flickr group all about Manual lenses on the GF1 here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/1273669@N25/

Take a look and se what people are doing!

I have just bought a Voigtlander lens, £180 and near Leica quality!!! It's the new love of my life!! :D
