Agree with this, my adapter by jinfinance is much better with regards infinity.

Congratulations!
That is definitely a fine looking piece. I bought mine after looking at Orio's pictures from it also. In fact, it's mounted now. Mine is a user copy, with scratches on the body and lens. Despite that, it produces beautiful pictures. |

I agreed big_is adapter is good. Just bought the M42 to 4/3 with AF comfirm chip. Works great and smooth. One thing weird about the focal length shown on the camera, it is alway f2.8 no matter what lens I mounted !

Another vote for Bigis
I must say though that the very best C/Y adapter now comes from Happypage HK.
The actual ring that they use is made by Kindai.
The body is black and the opening does not bind on any of the largest C/Y mounts like the Planar135 or Sonnar 180. Yet, there is no side to side play whatsoever.
They can Exif in FL and Max aperture. I have found with eos if you Exif in a f3.5 for any lens. The camera meters better.

Sorry, I forgot my big-is experience.
M42, C/Y and PK rings, all with Af confirm, and everyone works perfect.
Mounting it in the camera or in the lens it works smooth and with precision.
