Hakkalo, I would be very interested to know/see the result of 1 Inch (25mm) lenses uncropped in 4:3 format. I am looking for one that covers the whole sensor in 4:3 and does not vignette.
Cheers

Do these lenses cover the m4/3 sensor? Or are they cropped as they are because they would otherwise vignette?

Thanks,

Over here a list with sensor coverage: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=p9kkgjwEQQQ-HJwvNDobeEw

Thanks, I have seen that spreadsheet. I was wondering specifically about the 1", 2", and 3" lenses Hakkalo is using, which are all cropped. Hakkalo, uncropped, at 4:3, do they cover the m4/3 sensor?

They were all uncropped,at 16:9. Lens with focal length above 2 Inch will cover M4/3 sensor,some 3 Inch even can cover Full Frame.:angel:

Thanks for the clarification. Some of these shots are quite lovely. I particularly like the one of the trees taken with the Elgeet 3 Inch F2.9 Cine-Tel. However, I'm wondering what advantages these lenses have over other manual focus lenses adapted, say, from Nikon or Canon. Is it primarily that they are quite small? Or is there something about the image quality itself that is appealing to you?

You've to modify to use with Nikon or Canon by meant of a helicoid in order to focus.
This Elgeet 3 Inch F2.9 has been modified to M42-mount, then use M42-M4/3 adapter---G1

What I'm wondering is not how to adapt them, but what drew you to using these lenses instead of lenses from still cameras by other manufacturers. In other words, what do you like about these lenses more than other lenses?
