not sure it's far "out of spec" but probably at a limit : the fitting is
more tightening on the E-M5, even with other lenses...but it's newer...:)
the trouble come from the fact that the adapter has the possibility to
rotate...I've found a technique: if I make a traction toward the front
on the rotating part with the lens attached I can mount and dismount it
, not the easiest way but safer than pressing my thumb inside
