The OM bellows connects up fine with the E-1 + FourThirds adapter. As Moose 
pointed out the tab on the bellows mounting ring is the item most likely to 
cause fit problems, but it just slides by the front of the prism housing.

With the 80mm f4 zuiko the slide copier + bellows is just about long enough 
to give 1:1 coverage. However I don't know if I wasn't able to focus it or 
if there was some other problem. There was no competition between the E-1 
and my film scanner. Maybe tomorrow when I have bright light I will have 
time to try experimenting with the focusing. Focusing wide open at f4 then 
stopping down to f11 still gave a pretty fuzzy picture of the slide.

The bellow looks pretty cool on the front of the E-1. The view through the 
80mm seemed sharp but my eyes aren't the greatest. So all I can say is 
mechanically the pieces fit well.
