I have a cheap ($22) adapter. It works fine. The problem would be that it's hard to do a MF on the LCD screen, even with the magnification. I have the optional eye-level EVF which is great for MF. You would really want to get a mu43 lens. You can get the kit zoom under $200 or the 17 mm for ~$250 new. I haven't checked used prices. The trick is that brings the total up to $350-400, and there are E-Pl2 kits fro only a little more.
