The seller also had a Zuiko 38/3.5 with PM-MTob & 1-12 screen for sale. This 
early 80/4 includes a 1-11 screen. It would seem the gear was likely used 
with an OM camera.The OM mount to RMS thread adapter is puzzling. Perhaps 
there wasn't any bellows ... the adapter would also act like a fixed 
extention tube.

She's been registered for about 1 year and only has feedback for 8 items. 
Perhaps she picked up some pieces at a garage sale or inherited it ....

I guess I'll have to email her and ask a few questions to satisfy my 
curiousity.

I doubt if the 80/4 would work on any microscope, and it doesn't make
sense to mount it onto the PM-Mtob since it can directly be mounted to
the OM bellows. My guess is the adapter was intended to mount the Zuiko
onto a non-Olympus bellows, or perhaps a large format camera.
