  Still using them on a Canon 300D (Digital Rebel) and 
a Canon 20D (both crop factor 1.6)

Adapters with and without focus compensation - which 
works well

No way to change focusing screens - so they are a bit dim

No modifications required.

Excellent results - have to be careful with Canon's 
silly exposure compensation in AE-mode that puts 
exposure off by a stop or so at smaller apertures

Cheers
Douglas
(also using a 21mm for film on an M6 and a Minolta CLE 
with an adapter)
