I use the 35-80/2.8 on it most of the time. 90/2 has its own dedicated
adapter. 180/2.8. Those are not small lenses. Not afraid to use the Z
300/4.5, but it has its own tripod mount, so no problems. I'm a really
happy camper, adapter-wise.
I'm not anal about EXIF correctness. They focus well and autoexpose
well -- that's about all I care for. The OM experience lives on. It
seems like everyone told me I'd do adapters for a while and then switch
to Canaan/Tammy native lenses. Haven't had a twitch yet. The 35-80
still knocks me out.
