Leica 180/2.8 lens on the Olympus E420 (1 Viewer)

I had an old Leica lens from my Leica R days that I wasn't able to sell when I sold the system. I managed to find an adapter today to fit it to a 4/3 rds camera so I took it out to the local park . Here are a couple on shots taken with it.

ps it's not as sharp as my Nikon 300/4 so I'm more likely to be using that in future.

Niel, I agree and would not use that lens again so the next time your in the states and want to pass the lens on to another photographer, I'm here in the St. Louis Missouri area,, :-O

I believe many people would love to have a few photos of that quality level,,
