I'm after one of these in either Pentax K or Nikon mount, but can't find any info about possible clearance issues with adapter to 5DII. Anyone any experience?

It's basically the same as any Nikon AI-s lens. Put an adapter on, and it works fine. I've used one for awhile on my 1D4....a little soft wide open, but very nice by f2-f4!!!

Thanks Gregg, there's a Pentax KAF one for sale now, mint-, but I believe the aperture lever and shield would need surgery to clear the mirror.

I just checked eBay, and you can find the Nikon version, SLll, for under $500. All you need is an AI-s to EOS Adapter(several out there, both amazon an eBay), and you're set. Very simple.
It's a very nice lens...
