I've been reading some posts about 16x9 adaptors that work with the GL2 and it seems that there are 3 options. 2 of them are not fully zoom through and the new Century is fully zoom through (and also quite expensive).
Looking at Adam Wilt's reviews of the 2 non zoom through adaptors, I got the impression the Optex was slightly better with it extra zoom range and all. But then I read a post on this forum (an old post I believe) where someone complained that his Optex adaptor was outputed an incorrect aspect ratio. Is this true? Has anyone else noticed this with their Optex 16x9? If so, then does the Century non-zoom through also have this problem?
And while I'm asking questions about the adaptor, how much can you zoom through with the optex/century before it starts to get impossible to focus?
