Does anyone has examples of pictures taken with an E1 or e300 with a manual
zuiko? I'm kind of curious what the results look like.

Yep, it's 1950's, stop-down metering all over again. You turn the aperture
ring, the lens opening phyically changes, just like a rangefinder lens. Oh,
the finder also gets darker.
The only real issue is that there isn't a nice mechanism like a Zuiko shift
lens, where you can compose at full aperture, then hit a button to stop down
the lens, allowing the camera to meter the scene properly. This limitation
makes using the adapters a slow operation for any sort of action and pretty
much unusable except for static subjects, IME.
