The GFC-1 works with the 14mm end of your 14-42GX lens. When you attach the proper adapter (the 37mm for the 14-42) to the GFC-1, you will think that it does not fit and become frustrated. Fear not. It is just a very tight fit and you will have to exert some effort in turning the adapter ring onto the GFC-1. The adapter you will not be using is the 46mm. I use that one with my 14 f2.5 lens (a very nice lens to have, if you do not have one already). So, the short answer is that the unit works only with the 14mm end of your lens and not with the zoomed focal lengths between 14 and 42.

No it will now, this is made only for the 14mm prime or the Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ 14-42mm/F3.5-5.6 Lens Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ 14-42mm/F3.5-5.6 Lens for Panasonic Lumix G-Series Digital Cameras (Black)

I only know that it works with EF-S and EF lenses. I don't know if the others work with it too or not.Sorry.

This filter will work with any camera that uses interchangeable lenses. The filter size, 46 mm, refers to the thread size of the front of your lens. This filter will fit any lens which takes a 46 mm filter size. As an example, the M.Zuilko 25 mm f1.8 lens takes a 46 mm filter. So does the M.Zuiko 12 mm f2.0, 17 mm f1.8, 60 mm F2.8 Macro lenses as well as Panasonic's Lumix G 20mm / F1.7 II ASPH, LUMIX G X VARIO PZ 45-175mm / F4.0-5.6 ASPH, and Lumix G Micro 4/3 LEICA DG SUMMILUX 25mm/F1.4 ASPH. Lens, among others. All these fine lenses will work on your OMD5 micro 4/3 camera and all use a 46 mm filter. Hope this helps.

Hello - I bought this adapter thinking it would fit those lenses - and it didn't. I have both the 50mm f/1.8 and the 28 mm f/2.8 - both didn't fit b/c there's a metal stub at the bottom that does not allow it to mount on the adapter. The only lens I had that fit was the 75-150mm lens.I wouldn't buy it.

It will work with all micro four third cameras which includes the GF2. The 14-140 F4 is the older, cheaper and much heavier zoom lens. The F3.5 version is smaller, lighter and better for your camera. It is pricier but worth it. I have both and the F4 (older version) while working fine, just sits in the closet collecting dust. The F3.5 model has slightly better reviews. Once you upgrade, you can put it on the new MFT.

I too am curious. Other similar lenses advertise that they work on more camera types. That if they say D3000, or D3200, then it'll work on the same series. For instance, is fails to mention if it works with Nikon D3300, which is what I have. So I'm trying to find out now.Anybody know for sure?Mike in NH

I have Lumix DH3 ; I am using with it 14-45mm lens much more often than 45-200mm. I agree with others that 14-45 is a great lens, sharper than newer 14-42.

I am using it with my old Olympus OM Zuiko 50mm F1.2 lens from about 1992. It is a fully manual lens, so on my Panasonic GX1, I select "Shoot w/o Lens" on the menu and set it to manual setting and I work on it like that. You would only use this if you're familiar with old lenses and if you're ok with manual settings.

All I can say is that in Panasonic website it says that it will work with any camera that has the place to plug it in. They may have said it more elegantly. I use DMC- G6 and it works beautifully. Buy it, try it and if it does not work; then send it back.

I had a Panasonic Lumix FZ150 until recently and I used the DMW-LA5 lens adapter on it. The end that attaches to the camera is 52mm (which is the filter size of the FZ150). The other end of the adapter is 55mm and it accepts 55mm filters. The adapter is needed if you want to use a Panasonic Lumix Close Up Lens DMW-LC55 (which is 55mm).

Amazon mixes reviews because it is considered the same item, even if it has a different camera mount. It's stupid in my opinion because I have noticed on some lenses that all the low reviews will be for one manufacturer and all the high reviews will be for a different manufacturer. This tells me that the bad reviews are due to a compatibility issue with that particular manufacturer and if that's not the camera I own it's safe to ignore them. And for the record, I am answering this on a Nikon lens page "Tokina AF 12-24mm f/4 AT-X 124 Pro DX II Lens - Nikon Mount"

You have to know if 50mm equivalent works for you. Also look at 17 and 14mm from Olympus and Panasonic if you need wider field of view. I have the lens you ask about and it's great but focal length you shoot at is first priority. Look at previous pics and see. Also using Amazon I've bought new and used like-new with equal good results but cost a lot less!!!

The DMW-GFC1 works just fine on the 14 2.5 lens, but you will need to find out from Blackmagic how this M4/3 lens and converter will function on their product.

I'm no expert but don't count on it. Even if the treads match, the position of the WC-E63 lense in relation to the lense of the Panasonic Lumix FZ200 is critical as are other optical characterictics like focal length. It would be interesting to try though if you had the FC-E63 in hand.

The best way I've found to verify which lenses work and which adapters to use is check at both Fotodiox and RainbowImaging in the US. If they have an adapter for the lens, it probably works. You can then e-mail or call them for verification if you're not sure.
