Yep.  So who makes your OM-Canon adapter?  Does it have glass in it?

Even a OM->E adapter is available, due to the long lens mount to "film"
distance some correction lens elements is needed and it may affect the image
quality and may not be able to optimise for all Zuikos.

3rd parties are very likely to do this I would think, as they did for the
Canon. (I'm *assuming* that CH's OM-to-Canon adaptor was not mfg'd by
Canon.) Sure, I'd love to be able to attach my 35-80/2.8 Zuiko to an E-1.  I
wish I could retrofit it with the 'smart distortion correction' feature
though to eliminate this lens' only Achilles heel - barrel distortion at the
short end.
