I like the elegance, or is it inevitability (?), of the Nikon solution for existing F-mount lenses on the Z-mount bodies.
Maybe I’m being oversimplistic, but wasn't this the only obvious method?
"Of course Canon will stick with EF lenses on mirrorless" is often quoted/prayed for, but how...
Sticking to EF, on the soon to be announced Mirrorless, will produce a geometrically compromised optical result, the extra distance (removed for the 'convenience' of mirrorless) is part of the design. So this extra distance can/must be added back in by an extender.
1. Will Canon stick with an EF-to-EF adapter?
2. Have the new III-series lenses been (secretly) optimised to cope with the shorter focus distance of proposed mirrorless?
3. How long before we see a Z-to-EF adapter to use Canon glass on the Nikon mirrorless?
