I just opened my T2i and shot the first thing I could - "Dinner Time." After researching here at dvinfo, I figured I'd be remiss if I didn't share my first shoot. Thanks to all those who continue to provide insight.

I'm an owner of XH-A1s and had gone down the path of the Cinevate 35mm adapter, with which I was certainly impressed. However, It can just be cumbersome in situations where I'd like to just shoot - and without the light requirements (let alone carrying all of that around). I previously owned a Nikon D60 so that was the extent of my familiarity with DSLRs. I've added the T2i and tried the workflow and based on the results, it's certainly a winner in my book! Maybe this will help someone considering jumping in with both feet - I'm glad I did!
