Hey guys I'm new here and just picked up my first M4/3 camera which is an Olympus Pen Lite E-PL6. I have no M4/3 lenses but do have and old C mount Kinoptik Paris Apochromat 25mm f2 lens which I have adapted to the system. For a lens made in the early 1960's it's sharp wide open and even covers the full frame without vignetting unlike most C mount lenses apparently. I'm going to pick up a proper M4/3 lens soon but this little lens is really unique and will be my go to lens for video. This is also my first digital camera in years and it's a bit frustrating to use but I'm still learning. Hope you enjoy some of the few pictures I've taken so far.

Very interesting look to this this lens. I'm guessing from your ID that you're a Rollei fan... I have my Dad's old Rollei slide projector, which still works well. They made some nice gear back in the day. I have boxes of old slide carousels if anyone wants them...
