Yes, the rear lens elements are very close to the mirror when focused at infinity.
Filing some of the rear element's metal off will let the mirror move free.

Since I have my R5 and the EF-RF adapter I can safely use all my old Pentax lenses (with the Kmount-EF adapter).

Ah, but the DX3 operates as both a mirrorless as well as a mirrored body, so I have the best of both worlds mate!
