Question for those who are looking forward to switch to m43 when the new camera emerges at the end of 2013.
Say you have a complete range of SHG heavy lenses. Do you mind to use adapter? Will you stack your teleconverter with the adapter? You don't worry that after multiple changes of the lenses you will get a play? Don't you afraid that your heavy super grade lens will get astigmatism or other imperfection on the level of kit lenses? The diameter of the m43 mount is designed for small lenses. If you do sports for example or work in a harsh condition you need your equipment to be robust, you do not have time to think about your weak lens to camera link. Will you put on your 35-100mm f2 and carry it on the belt attached to your m43 camera?
In my opinion the answer is NO. The adapter is prosthesis that will give you good functionality but not the full functionality of the native 43 mount.
There are no optical elements in the adapter to introduce anomalies.
The slightly smaller mount diameter likewise has no bearing on optical quality and if anything can make for more robust mount.
As has been pointed out, experienced photographers carry any large lens by the lens, or use a monopod/tripod.
Finally: why ask people about using a lens such as the 35-100 on m4/3, which many people do, and then come to an unsupported conclusion? If you haven't done it yourself, don't say it won't work.
Olympus visionary Jay Dickman has been using his 35-100 on m4/3 since the first PEN came out. I've seen photos and videos of him doing so. He holds that combo by the lens, and in one video I saw remarked how he likes the handling of a PEN on that particular lens because it adds so little weight.
BTW, many years ago when Nikon came out with the compact FM, Nikon owners said basically the same thing: the smaller FM wasn't robust enough to handle some of the big lenses. Then, as now, they were people who didn't know how to properly carry their gear.

Some people operate cameras. Others use them to create images. There is a difference.
