Adapters

[SteveF]

Hello,

I'm trying to find an adapter to use the GH1 with Nikon G lenses (without aperture ring) but still be able to manually adjust the aperture.

Are these out there? Reading the thread I'm not sure.

thanks,

Doubtful as it sounds like that requires the adapter to emulate the electronics of a Nikon body to control the aperture.

Red Rock Micro has done this for Canon EF lenses to use on their Encore 35mm adapter for video cameras but haven't seen of anything like this for m4/3 adapters.

Aie aie !

Can somebody help me ?

I just bought an adapter on Ebay for my GH1 and Leica R lenses. Good stuff but... When I screw it on my GH1, a message appears saying:

" The lense is not well attached to the camera"

I've tried many time but I am pretty sure that I can hear the CLICK saying the device is properly linked.

Does anyone know if Panasonic firmware is now protecting its adapter (like the batteries...) ?

Please !!!!!!

You have set the GH1 to "shoot without a lens" - last line on page 5 in "Custom Menu", described at page 130 in the manual.
