GH2 is there a way to use the Tamron 17-50 (non vc) canon mount on the GH2?

thinking of possibly getting a gh2 (not sure yet) but dont wanna sell this lens....can I use it with an adapter? I know there's the kipon that has the built in iris...but I think i read that it wont work for efs lenses.
 
The iris on the Kipon is in the wrong place and can cause vignetting. The best option I've found is to adjust the aperture on a Canon body in video mode, then take the lens off without switching the camera off so the iris stays where you set it, and then just use a dumb EF to Micro 4/3 adapter on the GH2.

I don't think there is a better option yet, but if somebody knows of one please chime in.
