Subject: [Leica] Re: OM, M42, and Leica R to 4/3 adapter

Question:

I saw several adapters for mounting OM, M42, and Leica R lenses on  
4/3 camera mounts on eBay for prices ranging from $20 to $30. The ads  
stated that these were made of brass. The price is substantially  
below the $99 charged by Olympus for an ON to 4/3 adapter and a far  
cry from the $160 charged by Camerquest. Has anyone tried these  
adapters?
