Am I missing something here with the Viltrox EFM2 0.71?

1: It cant be mounted on the Panasonic G95 (but it can my GH5 for example?)

2: Is it a 0.71 minus the actual focal length on the lens, or 0.71 minus the 2 x conversion due to 4/3 vs full-frame lens..

Many thanks for any boffins!
 
WHy wouldn't it fit the G95/90? I used the non focal reducing version on my G80 and never had any problems.

You multiply the FL of your lens by 0.71, which gives you something similar to in between APSC and FF, closer to the FOV of a similar lens on APSC

Exactly - but it just doesn't seem to mount! It goes fine on the GH5 but just doesn't "clikc" on!
 
I am not familier with the system your using but out of curioisty I had a look on Amazon and forund this compatability list for the Viltrox EFM 2 0.71 and it did not list that Panasonic model,.

yes I had seen that but... there is no physical different between the mounts as they're all m/43 so... how?
 
I honestly do not know, I agree it does seem a bit odd, however is there a difernce in the electronic connections between to two machines?

Could it be that which prevents it locking into postion?

I'm just guessing because I don't know the gear.
