Manfrotto 521pfi FF controller and 4/3 lenses

[anatusa]

Hey guy!

i just received my Manfrotto 521pfi Focus & iris controller and tried it out with my AF101 and few of my 4/3 lenses (oly14-54 ver1, sigma 30mm, sigma 18-50)! and what i can tell is - the focus was not working!?!? i was able to change the iris on all 3 lenses, but the Focus controller did not work for them! i was so happy getting it finally, but.....

have anyone tried that one or bebob with 4/3 lenses? did it worked? currently i dont have any m4/3 lenses at all, so would like to know about 4/3 lenses and especially sigmas...

or maybe i need to turn on something in the camcorders menu? but i dont think so...

generally i can tell that the unit is well made! nice look, and feels great in hands! has an attachment clamp that u can use to attach it directly to cam, or to tripod!

regards

i just came from the big tech shop, but unfortunately they only had one m4/3 lens - 14-42..... so i tried it and it did work GREAT! in fact i could not believe how good it was! its a little slower on response - but i can tell 100% true - it not makes any troubles! u only need 3-4 tries and thats it u already got used to it, i was able to focus on all kind of objects around the store with out any problems, its so easy and crazy smooth!

now i d like to know if there are any 4/3 lenses that will work with manfrotto focus iris controller?!?!
