(currently only own the 5D) Negative Issues: Hard to focus on stock screens. Stop down metering and shooting No auto aperture Positive issues: 5D = full traditional 35mm sensor Since acquiring the DMR and I find it much more pleasant to use Canon lenses on the Canon 5D Body with full functioning auto potential and The R lenses on the R8/DMR which ends up the kit of choice for 95% of my DSLR photography Regards, George Lottermoser george@imagist.com http://www.imagist.com http://www.imagist.com/blog http://www.linkedin.com/in/imagist Picture A Week - www.imagist.com/paw_07 On Jan 25, 2009, at 2:06 PM, Wayne Serrano wrote: > Luggers, > > I wanted to ask those of you who are using your Leica lenses on > Canon bodies about your experiences and recommendations.
