I'm actually bidding on a couple of non-AI (1960s era) lenses right now as they're dirt cheap. I see no reason why they wouldn't work, but I haven't tested them or heard about their compatibility...

If I could afford a tidy range of L series glass I might do the same :-)

One of the nice things about using old manual lenses is their affordability.

Bear in mind, even used, such lenses cost a lot more than good, old, sharp, elegant Nikon and Pentax glass that will also provide full aperture control. For the price of one L series lens one can...

For older Super Takumar, Super Multi Coated Takumar and SMC Takumar lenses (used by Pentax until the mid-70s), you'll need an M42 screw mount adaptor.

Cokin filters - would you use them?

The Cokin filter system is attractively priced and seems like an easy means of stacking NDs to allow large apertures in video mode on the 5DM2.

Hi Ron, it was actually a 28-105mm Nikkor zoom, non-IS. Yes it would definitely be interesting to see what a good IS lens could do in a similar situation.
