While I don't have any of the adapters, Jan, I do have a 35/2.8 T/S lens which 
I have used on an XPro-1 - not that different in size to an OM-D - as well as 
on a "real" OM-3. If you are expecting to replicate the experience of movements 
as on a 4x5 ... haul out the 4x5, because you will not enjoy setting the tilt 
on something as small as the lens+adapter+body, and it will be tricky to 
visualise the results in the field.  Shifts are different, much more easily 
done, and the adapters are very much cheaper.

Thanks for the shout, Piers.

While bitchin’ about the state of the world, I find myself lusting after the 
new, totally unpronounceable (and nearly un-typable) “OM-D E-M1 MARK II.” 
Social Security is still seven months away, and it’s still burning a hole in my 
pocket… guess you can put, “He died with the latest toy,” on my tombstone…

But perhaps I should just haul out my 4x5, and forget about doing lens 
movements on TCCs (Tiny Chinese Cameras). I’m sure I’d get as much pleasure out 
of the 60-minute set-up as I would out of the 60-frame pre-capture before I 
even push the button.
