Old lenses

More messing about today with old 'film' lenses on my Lumix GF3. I started off with the Olympus OM 50mm and a X4 close up lens trying to take pictures of bees. The bees had other ideas and would not stay still or hold an interesting pose. This was about the best one:
Terry, out terrapin was a much easier subject as he doesn't move much:
Flowers also came out quite well:
Then I tried out my 30yr old Paragon 400mm telephone lens. On the micro 4/3 format GF3 this has an equivalent focal length of 800mm! However the sun had gone in by then and the colours are not very vibrant. Not bad tho', worth a try again if the sun ever comes out.
