Did you make your own adapter?
Yes the aperture is wide open. There is a focus ring but its by wire. You can however still move the front element (not sure if this is good for the lens though). The lens focuses at fixed spots at certain focal lengths. No adapter used. The Olympus lens will actually fit in the k-mount at a certain angle. At which I just hold the lens in place. For the reverse I'm sure there's special reverse adapters. But I was just holding it up to the mount

I doubt the 11-22 would be useful if it works the same way as this lens. The macro I'm certain would be useful though.

honestly I really love the color and sharpness of these e-volt lenses. I swear this zoom lens is as sharp as primes
