John,

Thanks for looking and for your kind words.

Perhaps you can answer my question.  Does Olympus offer an M42 to 4/3 
adapter that is made from one piece of metal?  The Fotodiox adapter that I 
use is made in two parts, held together by set screws that have poor thread 
retention. It is ok for small lenses, but is not really adequate for a 
Takumar 200/4.0.
