Yes, the trick is to become a PhotoShop expert. That is not a single
image captured looking like that in nature. I'm not making any judgment
about its beauty of artistic merit, simply about how it was created.

For that price, it should be in perfect operating condition and rather
good cosmetic condition with at least a short term return right if it
isn't right. You can buy a nice decent looking OM-1 that has been CLAed
recently for less than that from me with a 50/1.8 lens. Drop me a line
off-list if you are interested.

No. Although the mount is actually quite similar, it's not the same and
the register distance is such that the DZ lenses wouldn't focus to
anywhere near infinity. And even if they physically fit, the
electronically operated aperture would not operate without the correct
connections and signals. Cross compatibility is strictly a one way
street. You can mount MF lenses on some AF bodies and operate the
aperture manually, but not the reverse.
