I agree some of those lenses look very very interesting. The 85 is optimized for best perfornance wide open and is the only 85 like that AFAIK. It is a tall order to get them to work on OM as Chuck nicely outlined. Dave at Leitax is a super mount surgeon and with arm twisting in the past was wiling to try to modify a Pentax to OM and try and retain auto aperture. Fortunately I ran into an OM version. I have no doubt SK Grimes could at least get the registration distance OK with mount surgery but doubt they would try and retain auto aperture. Also it would likely cost as much as the lens----but one could ask. http://www.skgrimes.com/home.
