Re: [OM] Portraits with OM 75-150mm and Viltrox 0.71x

The Viltrox EF-M2 doesn't work well on my 24/2 either (have to remove 
the lens rear metal), edges quality was soft. On the other hand it has 
exceptional performance with the Canon 50/1.8, it is very sharp edge to 
edge. I think when both lens and adapter's elements are having enough 
distance the result will be ok.
