I recall seeing this system a couple of years ago too. It seems like a lot of effort for not a lot of benefit and a number of compromises. But maybe I'm just biased because most of my non-Pentax lenses are Konica and the short lens register distance of those doesn't allow infinity focus (as with m4/3).
