Holy Hologon, I don't even have a micro 4/3 body yet, and I'm ready to buy monza's adapter first so I'm good to go with my G glass. Do any of you find the blackout times, on the LCD live view during shutter release, quite long and distracting on the Olympus EPx bodies? This video disturbed me (I understand the manual focus we would use makes the autofocus performance moot).
I'll have a basic site up by the weekend.

with my usual luck, I've ordered the Kipon adapter from Roxsen about three weeks ago; it is not even there, that this new one is released !!
I'm also somewhat worried that the one I ordered hasn't yet arrived. The seller said it had been shipped on the 22th of March and we are now the 10th of Aprile. I know that there were the Easter holidays inbetween, but usually both our customs and our postservices are fast. So I'm wondering whether it will come one day or not : did other already order stuff from Roxsen ? if yes, how long did it take for the shipping ? did it last more than two-three weeks ? I fear that it may have been lost ..
The one I ordered from Ebay was said to be "an updated version with a bigger gear, more convenient for focusing" and is costing 139.99 $. But I don't think that this was referring to the one with the ring just announced here.

I've bought a few items from Roxsen in the past and no problems other than the notoriously slow post from HK. I seem to recollect about a month for my items and I'm almost next door!

I am in a similar position. I contacted the seller after about 3 weeks and was told that there was some problem and it bounced back to him and he was sending it out again. I got a tracking number this time but still waiting (but only been a few working days since the re-posting so its not due yet)

Thank you for the great information. Finally we may have a very good G adapter for a reasonable price. I have no problem using the RJ adapter and it works well but there is always room for improvement.
It is about time to see another generation of adapter !! Did I say I love competition
So, any update on the website?I'll have a basic site up by the weekend.

Skywalker, do you work for Kipon? If so, do you know the difference between this new adapter and the one from lensworkshop? Thanks.
