Research told me that the old 5D mk1 had an issue with its mirror hitting the back of the lens. I am in the market for one of these entry level Canon bodies and just want to be sure that they will work ok.

I think the issue with some old M42 and Pentax K-mount lenses was that the lever for the aperture sticks too far into an EOS body and needs to be trimmed.
