Short M42 adapter for micro m/3
This adapter is perfect if you want to adapt an m42 focus helicoid to micro 4/3. A standard m42 mount plus helicoid will result in m42 lenses only working at macro focusing distances since they are too far from the camera sensor to focus at infinity.
This adapter is just a few millimeters thick, giving plenty of room to adapt several types of lenses. I've already adapted enlarger lenses using an m39 to m42 adapter ring, and a Componar enlarger lens (with 25mm mount) using a C-mount to m42 adapter ring, as well as being able to focus C-mount lenses as macro lenses.
Finally, this adapter is useful for adding a macro bellows to the camera, giving both a little more stability to the arrangement, and allowing for lens of a shorter focal length or for obtaining less macro power.
As can be inferred from the above, this adapter doesn't stand alone. It's necessary to add at least one adapter to make it useful.
The adapter itself works great. It fills a niche at a very reasonable price, and adds a lot of versatility to an already versatile system.
