    A bit more reach for my EPL1

    Thought I'd post this in case anyone is interested in budget alternatives to getting more reach out of their micro 4/3rds camera
    I've been playing with old Nikon lenses on my EPL1.
    I have an old 75-300mm (with the manual aperture ring) that cost me $40 from cash converters

    This pic is at 18mm on my 9-18mm Olympus lens for comparison only - definitely not a postcard shot, this one!

    At full reach on the 75-300mm (handheld)

    Only downside is that the aperture & focus have to be adjusted manually - no smarts in the micro 4/3rds to Nikon adapter (about $40 on ebay)

    Another example below. (handheld)
