[ Tech ] - What is the difference between 4/3 and Micro 4/3?

OT a little. May I ask is legacy lens also 2x crop on all m4/3 camera?

Any lens smacked onto a 4/3 or m43 camera will have to multiply by 2

Will m4/3 EP-3 body be able to auto-focus on a 4/3 Olympus 70-300mm lens fitted via an adaptor?

All Olympus bodies will focus with the m43 cameras, all Panasonic will focus also, provided it is CDAF capable, not sure about the newer bodies though, all require adapters when uding non native m43 lenses

Yes, u rite. I found out from Olympus that Single Shot AF is possible but not continuous for a Ep-3 body and a 4/3 Olympus 70-300mm lens fitted via an adaptor.

Really? That's something new to me, then again... I haven't had the 70-300 for a long time now, so can't test
