Re: Olympus OMD-EM1 / EM5 - 5-Axis works with dumb lenses

Does the 5-Axis stabilization work with dumb lenses? Is there a way to manually set the focal length similar to the Sony A7 II?
 
I used my FD lenses on the E-P5 and its stabilization worked great with these legacy, no electronics, pure manual lenses in video mode. As far as I know in video mode only 3-axis stabilization is in effect, actually, but I was quite happy with it. But, focus peaking and videography in general on the E-P5 was hideously pathetic; be warned.
 
Which 3 of the axis' works in video mode with dumb lenses?

I understand that the five are:
1) Pitch
2) Yaw
3) Vertical
4) Horizontal
5) Roll
