Nice lens, how much did you get it for? These lenses are going for pretty high prices these days it's hard to get a good deal or the same price it used to be before M43.

I got this Kodak for $300, I have notice that these lens have been priced pretty high lately, probarly because of the micro four thirds system. So far I like it, but the focus ring is abit stiff. Will try it out for street photography and see how it works.

A great review of the range of 25mm cine lens and comparisions. http://forum.getdpi.com/forum/showthread.php?t=8410
nice link!
Are there any settings we need to do on the gf1 body to make it work with c-mount lens?
I tried on the pentax 25mm f1.4 but i get the error "lens not attached properly". When this message appear, everything is freeze and you cannot access any buttons at all.
I had to mount back the pancake cake lens before i can go into menu to configure the settings. I then tried to toggle on/off "shoot w/o lens" settings but it didn't work. Knowing that its a manual lens, i proceed to toggle settings like "MF assist", "AF+MF", "AF assist lamp", "Focus priority", "Pre AF", "Direct AF area" etc but nothing works either.
Is it the gf1 body or the c-mount adaptor or the pentax lens itself that is causing the error? The c-mount adaptor and pentax lens however works fine on a EP1.

No. Not using Rj c-mount adaptor.
So when u use Rj c-mount adaptor, did u change any settings on the gf1 body? Or is it simply plug n play kind?
Try under Custom Menu > Shoot Without Lens > ON

Tried previously but doesn't work.
apart from enabling to shhot w/o lens, juz plug & play.
funny these thing are purely mechanical, so.....
Just test shooting w/o any lens, any problem...?
I remove the lens and yes shooting without any physical lens works. But somehow once c lens is mounted, it doesn't work.
likedat..try shooting with C mount only..no lens. if it's ok, I suspect something is touching the electrical contacts on the camera body at lens mount...pls check.
