Adapting old lenses is fun. Some of the primes can do much better a click stop down. Don't expect much from old tele zooms. Peaking can help with faster focus and the wonderful ibis of MFT stabilizes any old lens.

Yeah with manual focus I’ve been totally relying on the focus peaking through the EVF on my G9. It’s really helpful.

Not sure how it is called on Panasonic but on Olympus there is Magnify which is way, way more accurate way to focus (magnifies the focus point) than peaking. I often miss focus with peaking, never with magnify.
