I wanted to use my Nikon mount Peleng 8mm fisheye on 4/3 so bought an adapter.  
It worked, but the register distance was a bit out (slightly thin) so I 
couldn't use the focussing scale for setting hyperfocal distance and focussing 
TTL was difficult to say the least.  I then ordered another adapter from a 
different *b*y seller and the register distance on that was ok, so I'm happy 
with that.  I've shot a few other Nikkors using the adapters but really 
wouldn't bother unless it's outside the 14-150mm range of the kit lenses I have.
