For those contemplating getting a 4/3 camera, either Olympus, Leica,  
or Panasonic, a very good source of 4/3 adapters can be found at:

<http://stores.ebay.de/CIRRUS-ADAPTER-WHOLESALE_To-Olympus-4-3-body- 
adapters_W0QQfsubZ1793736>

These are Chinese made but then so is the Oly 500 camera. The  
adapters are available for Olympus, Nikon, Pentax M42 and K bayonet,  
and Leica R lenses. all to the 4/3 mount. They are of very high  
quality, easily equal to those supplied at quadruple the cost by  
Olympus. I paid $20 US for one, including postage. It lets me use all  
my old OM  lenses on the E-500. Too bad they don't make one to mount  
Leica M lenses on 4/3 mount cameras.
