You sound just like me when I first used OM lenses on the 5D - WB was
all over the place to start with. As you say, the E-1 has a much more
robust auto WB setting. Anyway, you'll have a great time with these
lenses on the FF format. I find it gives me both the old-school pleasure
of working with some great old manual lenses and the instant
gratification of digital. It's quite addictive!
