Would such an adapter have a mechanism for holding the aperture
stopped down, or would the user have to hold the DOF button while
taking a picture. How does the OM-EOS work in this regard? Is it
similar to the shift lens stop down mechanism?

I wonder if the MA-1 had anything to do with adapting to medical stuff?
