Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens
-
I own a GH2
I recently purchased the following lens from B&H:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1143786-REG/canon_0570c002_ef_50mm_f_1_8_stm.html
and the following adapter from Amazon:

Thing is, I can't get the lens to focus. Does it need to be activated by a Canon camera and then set to MF? Do I need an active adapter to use this lens? Did I totally screw up this purchase bundle?
Still pretty much a noobie on understanding lenses. Any and all help or explanations would be much appreciated!!
