This is what I thought - a sort of negative teleconverter. Since for
a conventional teleconverter the virtual (negative) focal length is
the same regardless of the prime lens in front of it, would the same
hold true for a positive lens behind the prime?

The E-10 uses a splitter - I'm assuming that takes up less room than a
swinging mirror?
