Andrew, some of the shorter focal length lenses (e.g. Canon 17-55, Tokina 12-24) are specially made for the current crop of DSLR's and will not clear the mirrors on conventional 35mm film SLR's (and presumably those of full frame DSLR's) because the rear of the lens protrudes further in to the camera body.
