hey guys i just got the GH2 and I love it!

However, I've been using a lot of m42 lenses and I can't find an adapter that fits well with the lenses I have.

I have the SMC Takumar 50mm 1.4 and the Jupiter 9 85mm f2.

When I put the lens on the adapter, it never secures tightly. It is still wobbly and it moves around when I'm shooting video.

Has anyone had luck with m42 adapters to micro4/3rds? Let me know if you have. Thank you!
 
I got one from Rocksphoto on ebay - a PIXCO adapter. Only thing I found with it but doesn't bother me, when you mount the adapter to the camera and it clicks, you can still slightly wiggle it rotationally. But it hasn't had any effect on my pictures or video. It was a cheap mount by the way.
