I'd be on it if you could put an OM lens on the front! That would breathe new 
digital life into toys like the 135/4.5 and the two shift lenses, both of which 
have huge image circles.

In fact, I'd guess *any* OM could be used on 4/3rds with tilt to some degree.

Andrew, does the Nikon lens mount appear to be come-offable in some manner?

Sad news for all you full-frame fans: it would seem that such a toy would be of 
limited use with full-frame lenses that already have an image circle optimized 
for 35mm.
