GH2 does field of view change when using a lens adapter?

does field of view change when using a lens adapter?

for example, using an EOS -> m43 adapter and an 11-16mm tokina lens. Is the tokina at 11mm on an gh2 going to appear exactly as wide as a natively m43 11mm lens (hypothetically)?? IE, does the physical extension of the rear "focal projection area" that the adapter introduces... does that somehow interfere with the optics of the lens??

pardon the laymen's terms. thanks for reading

No it won't 11mm to use your example is always 11mm, regardless of adapters, camera, etc..

One thing to be mindful about is that some lenses are branded 11mm when they actually are 11.7 and others 11.3, so you'll spot some difference from lens to lens, because the commercial branding is not milimetrically perfect.
