So do all m4/3rd cameras have the same lens mount?

Yes. You can, for example, mount the Pana 20mm on an Olympus. Even the AF works. But not all combinations work with AF if I'm not mistaken. And because there is no mirror, m4/3 can easily accept all kinds of lenses with an adapter. Nikkors, old Canon lenses, Leitz lenses etc. They just need an aperture ring. MF is also breeze with liveview.
m4/3 is 2x crop. So if you mount a 100mm lens you get a 200m FOV.

Nerdy stuff like books.

THIS book:



Actually a reeeeeaaaally appreciated present from the girlfriend for the degree, and mine has red spines.

Took more than an hour to skim the two volumes, any sort of information is inside of it, from production numbers to chassis numbers, schemes, layouts, everything.

I believe so, but the oldest 4/3 lenses I think don't support autofocus on the newest bodies, and they might need an adapter as well.

[LeonOfTheDead]

congrats as well....you got a job yet?

Nope, I have an option but I actually want to go on with my studies with two years of specialization in automotive engineering, so a job is not a priority at the moment, even if I wouldn't mind earning some money and be less dependent from my parents.

It's a book that came out a couple of years ago to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the brand. Wrote by Stefano d'Amico and Maurizio Tabucchi:

Revised and updated to 2007, “Alfa Romeo: the Production Cars” was first published in 1996 in a limited print run, written by the authoritative experts on the Portello manufacturer, Stefano d’Amico (President of RIAR, Alfa Romeo Italian Register) and Maurizio Tabucchi (consultant at both RIAR and ASI, Italian Vintage Automobile Association). This fascinating story of Alfa Romeo’s cars is told model by model by a text that results from precise reconstruction of the facts, enriched with detailed technical specifications (chassis numbering included) and rare archive illustrative material. All of Alfa’s recent production can also be found in the book, starting with the 155, the last car in the previous edition, the following 156, 166, 147, GT, Cross Wagon, 159, up to the last “Brera” and “Spider”. A long-awaited new edition that every Alfa Romeo fan cannot miss.

author: Maurizio Tabucchi, Stefano d’Amico
text: english/italian
size: ca. 24 x 27 cm
more than 2.000 colored and b/w pictures
1.362 pages - Two hardbounded volumes with glossy bookjacket in slipcase.

As far as I know this edition received much more material from Alfa Romeo trough its "automobilismo storico" department.
I'm not sure if its based on the previous Fusi book though, couldn't find enough info to compare them at the moment.

Congratz Damiano, looking forward on joining the working class he? he?

As above, not yet.


Thanks Chaps
