Panasonic has done exactly the same thing with their DSLRs and Micro-FourThirds cameras. Attempting to protect the naive customer, I guess.
Olympus doesn't do it at all. Fit an adapted manual lens and the camera just makes an exposure. On Pentax and Panasonic cameras, I enabled the ability to use "no lens" as soon as I got the camera (that's effectively what this means) and left it that way, never looked at it again. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
