Micro 4/3 users : Canon lenses

[ricktas]

A company called Redrock has just released a converter that allows micro 4/3 camera users to make Canon EF lenses fit their gear. Giving Micro 4/3 users a huge range of lenses to choose from. Unlike most cross platform convertors, the Redrock range allow communication between the Canon EF lenses and the Micro 4/3 camera body.

Kayell Australia (http://www.kayellaustralia.com.au/static/DSLRSpecialisedProducts/index.html?subsub=DSLR Specialised Products) have them in stock now

Oh goodie!

Now I can mount my 100-400L on my Pen camera! :lol:

Seriously though, it seems a tad expensive and complex IMHO.
It would really make things messy having to carry a 9V battery around with a cable going into the converter, and it doesn't say if the AF wil also work or not (and probably not), and for the price of the converter, you could buy a Canon 600D body to use with your lenses.

It also doesn't say if it works with Canon EF-S lenses, just EF lenses.

I wonder how many they will sell.
Guess it depends on how many 4/3 users there are that are just itching to use their Canon lenses on the 4/3 camera.
