Default Nikon lense on E system?

Anyone tried using nikon lens on any of the E systems? Came across an adapter to allow use of AF lens from nikon to 4/3 systems.

Any experiences? thought we might be able to use some great lens from other brands

or it might not work due to the sensor size...

Where can one get such an adapter?
I have 3 Nikkor primes, (35mm f2, 50mm f1.8 & 85mm f1.8), will be good if I can use them on my 2 Oly bodies

I have just recently bought a Pentax P/K to 4/3 adapter from the same seller.

Here is what I think of him:

- He confirmed payment the same day I paid.
- He posted the day after I paid using PayPal.
- Item arrived well packed about 5 days after I paid.
- It feels as if my adapter is very good quality.
- I haven't checked infinity focus yet, but I feel it works.

Of course, I gave him positive feedback. This guy deserves it and I will not hesitate to order another item if I need it. For those of you who are not aware of it, I live in Sweden, Europe. From my experience, I can warmly recommend him.

I have seen someone using a Nikon manual lens on an E-1. He bought the adapter from Japan I think.

So reliable adapters do exist like Olyflyer's recommendation and the Japanese make ones.
