The lens is for a Four-Thirds mount camera. Your Panasonic is a Micro Four-Thirds (MFT) mount camera. Thus, you will need a Four-Thirds to Micro Four-Thirds adapter.

You need a Four Thirds to Micro Four Thirds adapter.
The Olympus Zuiko 35mm f/3.5 ED Macro is a Four Thirds lens, while the Panasonic DMC-GF3 uses the Micro Four Thirds mount. Because the lens and camera are from related but different systems, a simple mechanical adapter made for 4/3 lens to MFT body is the correct match.
When shopping, make sure the adapter is specifically described as:
- Four Thirds (4/3) lens
- to Micro Four Thirds (MFT/M43) camera body
Do not buy the reverse type, which is for mounting Micro Four Thirds lenses onto Four Thirds bodies.
