    Computar 50mm 1.3 conversion

    There were posts on this a couple of years ago. YB Hudson bought the MS Optical adapter and said that it fit without any fiddling. Another poster (Vivek ??) said that it was modded, but did not post the details. I saw the lens and if I shim off the rear to attach it to the Hawk adapter, the...

    Zoom lens coverage at telephoto end

    So no c-mount zooms work for full coverage at the wide end. However, are there any zooms (fast c-mount or otherwise) that work on the entire m4/3 sensor at the wide end ? I am hoping for f1.4 or thereabouts at 100mm and uip (i.e. 200mm equivalent) to allow for a fast tele lens.

    IR Conversion DIY or Service

    There are a few people here with IR converted cameras. Would you mind posting where you got it done, with pricing and a rating of the shop ? Also, is there anyone with a GF1 who would be willing to post a DIY Howto guide ? Perhaps this thread could be an IR conversion FAQ.

    Has anyone used the 17-69mm f1.9 m42 version zoom and tested for coverage ? A post on another forum suggested that the wide angle coverage is 20mm image circle. Just wanted to be sure before I added to my huge collection of lenses.

    Finding a wide angle fast lens for the GH1 is a problem. There are simply none available. Vivek from GetDpi played around with the Fujinon 12.5mm f1.4 and modified it to get full coverage. This is my attempt to do the same. This attempt was referenced in these places...

    Problems with Wide Lenses - Summary

    I spent the past few days researching Fast Wide Angle Primes for the m4/3 cameras. I will use this thread as a summary. C-mount lenses are available for upto a 1-inch sensor and vignetted heavily at lengths less than 25mm. 35mm fisheyes like Peleng and Samyang 8mm/f3.5 allow a 16mm field of view...
