FAQs

Will autofocus work with this adapter?

No, this is a manual adapter. Autofocus functions are not supported. You will need to manually focus the lens.

Can I control the aperture using the camera's dials?

No, aperture control is manual. You must adjust the aperture directly on the Olympus OM lens itself.

What happens to the EXIF data when using this adapter?

Since this is a purely mechanical adapter, it does not transmit any electronic information. EXIF data regarding lens focal length, aperture, or focus distance will not be recorded by the camera.

Does this adapter support image stabilization?

Image stabilization functionality depends on whether the lens itself has built-in stabilization and if your camera body offers in-body stabilization that can compensate. The adapter itself does not provide stabilization.

Can I use my Olympus OM lenses on other camera mounts?

This specific adapter is designed for Fujifilm X-mount cameras. Urth offers other adapters for different lens and camera mount combinations.

How do I clean the adapter?

Wipe the metal surfaces with a clean, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using liquids or abrasive cleaners.

What is the warranty for this adapter?

This Urth adapter is backed by Urth's lifetime warranty.

Troubleshooting

Adapter does not mount securely to the camera.

Ensure there are no obstructions in the camera's mount or on the adapter. Check that the alignment marks are correctly positioned before attempting to mount.

Lens does not attach to the adapter.

Verify that the lens is an Olympus OM-mount lens. Ensure the alignment marks on the lens and adapter are properly aligned before turning to lock.

Image appears dim or overexposed.

This is expected behavior. You must manually adjust the aperture on the lens and the shutter speed/ISO on the camera to achieve correct exposure. Use your camera's meter for guidance.

Focus is soft or inaccurate.

Utilize your camera's focus peaking or magnification features to assist with precise manual focusing. Ensure the lens focus ring is set correctly and the adapter is securely mounted.
