I've read about using Hexanon lenses on the 4/3 Olympus system but does anyone know if they can be used on OM film SLRS?

Seems very unlikely. As I recall the OM body is on the thick side, and the Konica is thinner than most.... which would lend itself to adapting OM lenses to the Konica but not the other way around. |

No way to do it: Olympus OM register is 46 mm, Konica reflex register is 40.5 mm. Even if you can find or having made a suitable adapter, the Konica lens would not focus at infinity.
