The A10-M1 adapter (it's not really a lens) is for use with an endoscope
and is worth about $20 on the used market. They show up on eBay once in a
while. I believe the SM-2S is also for use on an endoscope/fibrescope and
is probably worth a similar amount. I can't see these two items being of
any use to anyone who doesn't already have some kind of Olympus fibrescope.
