It works great, and I actually plan to post an image taken with this combination in my PAW 30 coming up later today or tomorrow. I have also dabbled with other Leica lenses on the Canons, but in the end kept only the Apo Macro. Among the Canon lenses I have tried, I really like the 2.8/16-35mm L and the 2.8/200mm L. The 2.8/24-70mm is also very handy and in fact serves as my normal lens much of the time, but its image quality is not quite as good as the other two I mentioned. For low light I use the 1.4/35mm L and I am extremely happy with it. In the past I have also owned the 1.8/85mm (non-L, only about $300) and that lens was also very good. There is a 1.2/85mm L which I believe Tina has and that is supposed to be quite a lens as well.
