An interesting thought. I've not thought much of adapters to adapters.
I don't have much in the way of MF lenses other than OM but I do have
a Minolta 58/1.2 (for which I already have an MD=>m4/3) but I also have
a couple of Pentax PK lenses and maybe a few other oddballs around.
I'll have to check what's in the recesses of the camera gear boxes.
