Bert, do you mean 4/3 digital camera or micro4/3 digital camera?

I think Olympus may make a 4/3 mount digital camera still, but micro4/3 is far far more common, and Panasonic & Olympus have plenty of examples of that in their digital lineup

There are adapters for both formats - and adapters for 4/3 to Micro4/3 as well nowadays

I know that and now I know that youknow that, but not everybody knows.

A couple nifty 50s and a 55 Micro. 50/1.8 E from Glazer's Camera Supply during their Photofest event last weekend, 55/3.5 Micro-Nikkor-P with AI ring from KEH, and a 50/2 AI from Kenmore Camera.

2 items on their way to me. A stereo attachment from the FSU. Made for 58mm lenses but fwir, should be ok with 50mm at less than infinity. A Zenith suitcase enlarger. I had one in the 70s and really liked the autofocus. Will use it instead of the Durst for smaller 35mm prints.

I took a chance on a cheap Olympus XA with a shutter problem. When I got it, the shutter did work but was always the same speed. Did some reading here and an old thread mentioned them needing silver oxide batteries. It had alkalines. Fitted the correct batteries and the shutter now works fine.

Fuji Natura 1600, a few boxes of both Color and B&W Impossible film for my SX-70 and 600, and I finally broke down and got a "frog tongue" for each camera.

Film....lots of film!

A B50 adapter for a Hasselblad pro shade. One of those not-very-exciting-but-unfortunately-necessary purchases. Also just picked up a little $3.50 Pentax point and shoot at the local thrift store that I'm having lots of fun with (until I get this first roll back and discover some strange, hidden malfunction).

50/1.4 AF Nikkor. Replaced the AI version I had with it. Yeah, focus is a little looser feeling in manual focus mode, but surprisingly no worse than the focusing ring on my 55/3.5 P.

Nikon initially made the AF-D lenses with the aperture ring drilled at f/8 and f/4 so rabbit ears could be added. Nice if you want to use it on pre-AI bodies.

I think the later AF-D's no longer have that.
