Note that the OM version works fine if you fill the appropriate screw hole with
epoxy and sand it flat....
The OM-2S does not have the little rubber button on the lens flange, so no
modification is needed if you do not have an OM-3/4.
I also have an Adaptall mount in a "for Olymus M" box, but mine is definitely an
Adaptall-2.

Regarding Tamron, I have just bought a 60-300 SP ($100 incl. Canon FD mount),
and tha macro function does not appear to function. I also have a 35-210 SP with
the same macro feature, and that works fine. Has anyone had a problem with macro
with the 60-300?
