Last time I bothered to notice, Olympus had stated they would *deliberately not* design their digital cameras to take their SLR lenses. Something about the optics/physics being wrong, so the image would never be as good, and they didn't want to dilute the Zeiss reputation. Of course, they may have reconsidered, once they found out that someone was already working on creating a converter-connector thingie.
