I have managed to get this to work. My one modification over Ag's specs is
to eliminate the OM-3Ti (or in my case an OM-1N) by grafting a Canaan 5D
directly to the lens via an adapter. It saved me the trouble of destroying
a digital camera and getting duct tape stickies all over my OM camera. I
realize it is not as satisfactory as what Ken has in mind, but it has a
predictable outcome and allows me to take pretty decent photos.
