    Canon FD 70-210mm f4 adapted to an Olympus E-M5 at the time, and I also added a Kodachrome 200 film sim haldCLUT to it in RawTherapee.

    Assuming such a ring exists, I could probably attach an M42-FD adapter ring to my current lens adapter (which is now being used with a Panasonic GF2 as the camera that snapped this pic has since died of a stuck shutter) and use M42 glass without having to get a new adapter, which the adapter used in this shot is a Fotasy FD-M4/3.

    Thanks! And technically it’s still around just under a new name - the OM System OM-series, but the camera that replaced the E-M5 is a GF2.

    Also, some people argue that the CCD in certain 4/3 DSLRs is film-like in how it captures images.

    Also, since Leica makes MFT glass, I kinda wonder why they never made any MFT bodies as their entry-level lineup while APS-C and full-frame L-mount could be their mainstream lineup and the M-mount rangefinders could be positioned as their halo products - something that Leica customers could hypothetically aspire to.
