Does anyone know if the 4/3 to m4/3 adapter makes the 4/3 lens auto diaphragm? I would think it does but haven't found a reference that states one way or another. If it does take a look at the Olympus 4/3 (not micro) 50mm f/2.0 ED macro. Outstanding reviews on B&H and tested on dpreview. Priced about the same as the Sony 50 macro.
