I would see no benefit at all in mounting an A*135 f/1.8 onto an EOS body, as Canon already make a 135mm f/2. The 135 would have to be used in stop-down metering mode and it would not be suitable for my needs. However, the K15 f/3.5 and the A*85 f/1.4 that I have adapted to EOS work very well. The 15 is used for landscapes and focussed according to depth of field achieved. Composing is done at max aperture. The 85 is mainly used at maximum aperture to achieve minimal depth of field in portraiture.
