We spent years on this list dreaming about such a thing. It came to  
naught. Olympus have proved themselves rather unsentimental unless  
there's a dollar in it (as in the new PEN).
They'll refuse on the grounds that it's just not 'telecentric'.
Of course, it might be possible to build your own - if you know enough  
about engineering, camera mechanics and electronics - and you were  
prepared to wreck something like an old Kodak 14n for parts! (A beater  
sold for just over $400 here the other day).
Beats building a boat in the basement.
