During my brief foray into the land of Canon digital I mostly shot
with a Nikkor 20/2.8 on my 10D. In fact adapted lenses on Canon are
slightly more functional than pre-A K mount lenses

The non-EF-S bodies are safe once
However, Adam, my original point was that the fact that new camera of
one system (K-5) outdoes similar cameras of other systems (7D, D300s,

I don't think so. It is relevant because people are subject to change
