Any ADAPTED Lens Users? ~~100TH POST!~~

Wanted to make my 100th Post an interesting one!

Are there any Lens Adapter Users lurking around POTN at the moment?
I use an a Zeiss Pancolar 50mm f1.8 on my 20D via an af-chipped M42 Mount adapter with very nice results. I even did some nice high school baseball action with it last spring!
Which Lenses and Mounts do you use?
How successfully?

Yes there are a lot. I use M42 and Nikon adapters.

Look up POTN member 'gasrocks', check out his gear list .

Hi Perryge!
I just gave you a +2 hallelujah in the '...creaaaam' thread about that guy loving the 'beautiful bokeh' in a shot that had bad bokeh in it.

I am using an oly 28/3.5 on my 350D through an olympus- eos adapter (non AF confirm).
Stuck with a FD mount lens, organizing for a Bower adapter (I dont stay in the US, so getting it shipped to someone there who is on a project or something, and can carry it for me)

I have a couple super-takumar 50 primes, m42 mount. Love the bokeh

Only use M42 mount Zeiss on the 7NE, which took over from the 350D.

Haha I hate the bokeh on my SMC Takumar 55 1.8. Otherwise it's a terrific lens.

Currently my only adapted lens is an Olympus Zuiko 24mm 2.8. It's amazing on my 5D. Sharp corner to corner. Color is very nice and great contrast. Highly recommended. I'm now looking for the 18mm Zuiko. Darn you Argyle

I have two m42 lenses I use on my 30D, a 28mm f/2.8 and a 135mm f/2.8

I'm thinking of grabbing a Zeiss 50mm f/1.4 or f/1.7 and converting it at the moment

Pentax K and a lovely-for-the-money M 50mm 1.7 for me...

Pity I can't use my Rokkors without a hack job or ropey glass-filled adapter.

I have contax carl zeiss 50 1.7 & 28 2.8 with C/Y to EOS chipped adapter.
I love the 50 1.7. It's very nice lens. Although I love my Sigma 50 1.4 too.

Only one adapted (to Canon EF) lens at the moment, the Peleng 8/3.5 fisheye.
I've been looking at the Voigtländer Ultron 40/2 for a while ... I just might try it.

WOW - I didn't know Voigtlander was making SLR compatible lenses! I thought they were in the Rangefinder Mounts only! I'll have to look around on that idea FretNoMOre, Please feel free to PM/post any links on that front if you care to.
Thanks

I've got a bunch of adapted lenses. From my most used down:

Voigtlander 125/2.5 APO macro (Eos native)
Voigtlander 180/4 APO (Nikon native)
Vivitar Series 1 90/2.5 macro (Oly mount)
CZ 35-70/3.4
Helios-40 85/1.5 (m39)
Oly 21, 24, 28mm

I've got 5 or 6 others but they're not out often. The only problem I have is that I don't have perfect infinity focus on either of my m39 lenses. All others are very good or very unique.
