I can think of three candidates: the two shift lenses, and the 16/3.5
full-frame fisheye, which would, of course, become a "real" fisheye with a
~50mm image circle within the 6cm x 9cm frame.

The shifts and fisheye would be as good over 6x9 as they are on 35mm.
But I'm just arguing with "ANY." I agree that MOST Zuikos are probably
unsuitable. Those designed to work on a bellows would probably be the best
candidates, especially the 80 and 135.
