I bet the body-cap with pinhole is closer to 50mm... the OM back-focus is
~46mm (guessing from memory here, somebody will know for sure) although the
pinhole likely isn't exactly even with the flange front... so its probably
closer to 50mm. I got one of those pinhole body caps somewhere, I'll have to
dig it out and play with it. I suppose that could have been a TOPE subject
as well, I just now thought of that.
