Hi Miserere,
Look at the third picture here:
http://cgi.ebay.it/Pentax-PK-Lens-To-Micro-4-3-m4-3-Adapter-GF1-E-P1-EP2-/290480031613
It's that small screw on the m4/3 bayonet. I already own such an adapter and
I plan to use FA lenses on a Panny GF1 (bought secondhand and arriving here
within a couple days), just for fun.
Prior to make damages or just have misoperation, I'm asking about that screw
and when/how to use it, as I cannot find web resources explaining that.
Cheers,
Dario

Subject: Re: For those using Pentax lenses on micro 4/3
I have no idea what you're talking about, Dario. Is it maybe a stop
DOWN screw? I seem to remember some early m4/3 adapters having a screw
(as opposed to a ring) to stop down lenses, although I think it was
only for rangefinder lenses with short registration distances (and
thus very thin adapters).
If you plan on using DA lenses, buy an adapter like the Novoflex that
has a (blue) stop-down ring. If using FA or earlier lenses, just buy
the cheapest adapter you can find (which won't have a stop-down ring).
Cheers,
—M.

What's the intended use of the "stop screw" that sellers boast on their
adapters? I see there is a small screw on the m4/3 bayonet (head outward):
is that the stop screw? How would you use it? Thanks a lot.
