My understanding is that the Nikon and Oly mounts are completely incompatible. 
There is an adapter so that you can use Zuikos on certain EOS models, but I 
haven't heard of anything similar for Nikon.  And of course that wouldn't help 
you mount a Nikon lens to an OM body.  The shutter speed ring is the 
"culprit."  Is that why we love it there?
