I have a 24mm shift and 16mm fisheye which can be mounted to a mamiya 6x7
back. http://medfmt.8k.com/mf/jpegs/24mmshiftWith67body.jpg
The lens has been adapted by cutting off the scalloped top and bottom shades
and
removing the arm which signals the chosen f/stop to an Olympus 35mm SLR. But it
is still usable on my Olympuses as a shift lens with auto or stopped-down
metering.
Actually, any Oly lens will fit the body. The "Body" is hand-made with a Mamiya
6x7
roll back, and a T, B, 1 - 1/100 leaf shutter.
Expect some vignetting...
