Hello, I am currently using the Olympus EM5 Mark II in the EP PT13 Olympus housing. While the camera does great for what it is, I am looking to upgrade my mid-range lens. I am really looking into getting the Olympus 12-45mm Pro lens to replace the 14-42 kit lens. The only problem I have is I cannot find a zoom ring that is said to be compatible with my housing. Has anyone else had this issue and found one that worked? Can anyone on here 3d print one? Thanks!
 
I am using that lens with the AOI DLP-04P 4" semi dome port on an AOI housing. I _think_ it would fit on the pt-ep13 using that port. It won't zoom all the way to 45mm in the PT-EP13 port (iirc, something like 37mm it taps the inside of the port).

Unfortunately I don't have an EM5-II anymore, so I can't check if the AOI LG-OM-1 zoom ring for the 12-45pro would work, but it might. The main difference is that AOIs gears are thinner than the ones Olympus used to sell. It might be a bit tricky to line up.
