That would certainly not be the case with the (overpriced) Oly adapter. There's
just a whole lot of empty space between
female OM mount and male µ4/3 mount. Larger diameter than the mount opening for
20 mm, then only slightly smaller for
another 6 mm. That's WAY more than the 50/1.2 needs.
The protective 'ears' on the back of the 50/1.4 stick 5 mm back from the back
of the mount, and they are just out in
empty space on my Oly adapter.
I can't imagine why any other adapter wouldn't be the same. But who knows;
Vivitar OM extension tubes have a narrower
clear inner diameter than Oly's do.
