Has any one ever mounted and used a canon FD lenses on M-10 with a adapter ?  What were your results?

Yes I have one and used it with my TS Canon lenses.

No problem great results.

Of course is manual or A priority only but I used only manual.

Just purchased the Fotodiox adapter. I have only had time to test it with the FDn 200/4 yet, but it seems to work. Not the easiest one to mount and unmount, but at least tolerances seem to be ok  - no wiggling.

When mounting an FD lens using an adapter it's good to remember that there is a pin on the inside that needs be on the correct side of the lever closing down the aperture to the preset value. Otherwise the aperture ring will not work. The Fotodiox adapter has a rotating ring that moves this pin, but some other adapters may have just the pin in a fixed position.
