Joel, these are wonderful, I can second your experience, with the 5Dii
I have reached the point that I do not long for another body,
With a chipped adapter it works very well for me. (I have a few dos
lenses, 40/2.8 and 24-85 conurus con tax) but for serious work these
stay home. This was completely shot with 35 shift (very convenient
with the stop down button) and 90/2 and some 55/1.2. The results are
pixel peep quality, thje shift comes into large format territory on
the go and almost from the hip (all without tripod). Once one is used
to this combo it works very well...
