Hi Felix,
Have you tried your Contax wide-angles on the Canon digital body? If so, do
they perform better than the EOS wides?
Regards.

I can understand you so perfectly! After many, many years of Nikon loyalty
I started digital with Canon when they launched the first DSLR more or
less affordable, the EOS D30. From then all my ten Nikon SLR from F to F5
rest in my cabinet with more than 20 Nikkor lenses from 15 to 400mm. As a
both brands user I'm not at all biased but I've found that in digital
Canon is going always ahead and they will follow so. With a big economic
effort I went directly from the D30 to the 1Ds. It's a so marvelous camera
and the 5D has to be not worse and at a much more affordable price. From
scratch I've built up a lot of Canon EF lenses -I like the AF and my eyes
will thank it as I'm 62- from 14 to 400mm. I couldn't be happier. Just
bear in mind that a full frame digital reflex does not forgive any
imperfection of the lens and, particularly, in the wides and extreme
wides. Not they are bad that they aren't but be prepared for shooting two
or three stops close as otherwise corners will be a little bit soft. With
this precaution and some postreatment and a appropriate learning curve
you'll have but satisfactions.
Regards
Felix
