Nope, haven't tried this...

But (yes, this is gonna sound REALLY weird) I have shot through the lens and viewfinder of an SLR in reverse. What I did was to attach the lens with the biggest aperture that I could find (50mm 1.8) onto an old film slr (EOS 888) and then put the subject behind the viewfinder of the 888. I then positioned my XT with kit lens to point directly at the 50 such that the two front elements were touching together. Then I took the picture using the XT.

Sorry for hijacking the thread!
