I just bought a 24mm OM H.Zuiko and I also bought an adapter on ebay for it to work on my 20D. Since buying that adapter, I've read a lot about making sure to get a quality adapter or the lens won't take good photos. So I'd love some advice on adapters. My adapter hasn't got to me yet, so I haven't been able to try the lens and decide on the quality for myself.
So here's a link to the ebay adapter I got: adapter If someone can tell me if that was a smart purchase that'd be cool. Also, if I'm going to regret that adapter, can someone advise me on what adapter to get?

I have a few of those adapters for my Oly MF lenses...they seem to work very well. Big-is will code the chip with the focal length of the lens which enables it to show up in the EXIF data. Another adapter dealer, happypagehk, will code the chip with both the focal length and the native aperture value (he's the only one that does this). Makes for sorting shots much easier...
Got mine from the same vendor. Works very well. It was a little loose, but I found web page that shows you how to adjust the fit. It is easy to do. I did not save the URL.
