MC14 mount
My technique has obviously let down the MC14 as my left hand often leaves the lens, the mount is now what an engineer would call a rattling fit.
There's probably less than 0.1mm movement and images seem to be consistently sharp, so do I need to worry about this? All the lenses are nice and tight, so it's the converter not the body!

Re: MC14 mount
I don't think you should have any movement, it may affect the weather sealing.
I've been using my MC-14 for circa three years, it still fits as it should. If you haven't already done so, I'd recommend checking that the screws on the MC-14 are tight or, if it's still under warranty, send it to Olympus for repair. Dave |

Re: MC14 mount
MC14 screws do seem to come loose; it's a recognised issue.
Nobody here is otherwise affected!
