Oct-19 to m43 adapters topic
  • Jean71Jean71

    I just shoot a couple offers to a well known (for the adapter's quality) seller, and he refused my $320 final offer.

    His price on ebay was $450, but with the "make a proposal" option, and the adapter had a support bracket.

    I understand the Lomo prices madness (I just bought a set of lens for ridicolous price here in Italy, that was luck), but i would like yours opinion about spending $450 for an adapter. And this seller is the factory, no middle men in the business.

    I bought from him an oct-18 mount when he haven't the "make an offer" yet, that makes, in my opinion, a factory less serious. The fact is, i saw another seller from same country, and maybe i'll go for a less expensive one.

    The bottom line is: people here works for free to do the best things for MFT, and other people are making money on this.

    I hope that some factory in China will join the adapter business, i bought from pchood here (Cinematics) and you see you're dealing with serious people. Please share your thougths.

    @Vitaliy_Kiselev Do you think we will have MFT adapters from China? It could be lovely :-)

    Again, I do not get it.

    m43 adapters are cheap, check ebay.

    The chinese adapters are still cheap in price and quality. Sometimes you can find a good one but don't expect perfect fit or focus. The more expensive, precise, ones do seem to be going up in price. Supply and demand.

    I think he will accept $380 or $400. Try it :)

    Or just buy the one without support bracket since it's cheaper.

    @svart @au8ust

    If that's the only option for now, i'll go with $380, i need to use that lens set. Thanks for the infos :-)
