En réponse à Winsor Crosby <wincros@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>: 
I have one and it works mounted on a EOS RT bought used (even TTL flash but 
yes with stop down metering).  
I read that some EOS bodies don't allow the shutter to be released without  
EOS lens on it (EOS 50-Elan). I asked for a test on D60 in a shop but the  
local reseller have operated himself and he said that doesn't work. I am not 
sure it doesn't work (not sure he disconnected the AF..).  
I would like to test again by other resellers in Paris but not enough time to 
do it.  
I hope it will work when the prices will decrease enough for me ("amateur"). 
Well, I think I will better choice C*non D body against new Olympus Digital 
4/3.  
I am despite about Olympus politic about OM series. We still don't know from  
Olympus if they have designed an adaptor for Zuikos. 
The comments of french magazine "Chasseur d'images" about the success of the 
Olympus 4/3 system are not very positive...  
But with this kind of adapter my Zuiko lenses can be still alive with todays  
bodies.
