Olympus PEN 14mm F8

Has anyone ever seen this lens?

Seems like it was modified for use for a movie camera?

wonder which lens it was hacked from?

Looks like they took a E Zuiko Auto W 25mm f/4, took the elements out and glued a 14mm lens on top. It'd be about a 20mm lens in 35mm film terms, so considering the widest half-frame lens Olympus made was equivalent to a 28mm in 35mm film terms this is pretty freakin' wide. Wonder if it really has an aperture as they claim "diaphragm works properly". They probably left the aperture from the 25mm in the barrel, though the aperture ring's gone, and it's probably behind the elements which usually makes for lesser quality stopping down. Interesting find.
