Rent NowThe Panasonic DMW-MA1 Mount Adapter to Mount Four Thirds Lens on Micro Four Thirds Camera lets photographers use their existing Four Thirds-system lenses on Panasonic’s Lumix G-series Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras, bridging the two related but mechanically distinct lens mounts.
The adapter maintains full electronic communication between the lens and camera body, preserving autofocus and automatic aperture control when used with a compatible Four Thirds lens; Panasonic notes that the camera’s firmware should be kept updated to its latest version, since autofocus may not function properly otherwise. Because Four Thirds lenses were originally designed for DSLR-style contrast-detection or phase-detection autofocus systems, focus response, particularly autofocus speed, is typically slower than with native Micro Four Thirds lenses.
Build quality centers on a compact metal housing, available in grey, measuring approximately 66 x 20mm and weighing approximately 83g. The adapter mounts to the camera’s Micro Four Thirds bayonet on one side and accepts the Four Thirds lens mount on the other, and includes a front cap and rear cap.
