Will Canon offer an EF to Mirrorless adapter to help us through the transition period ?

Hello? Anyone home?

You pick out one sentence from my post and give a strange response

And your point is ?

His point is that EF-EFM adapter exists since the beginning of the EOS M line.

Is the EOS M the successor to Full Frame DSLR, no its not which means that neither you nor he actually read my post very carefully. My post is about a time in the future when Canon introduces the new FF and APS-C mirrorless range as successors to the current DSLRs. At the moment EOS M is a sideline product.  The present adapter is a means by which Canon can entice existing DSLR and EF lens owners to buy an EOS M.

Imagine if you will a mirrorless successor to the IDX, and then think about if/ how EF lenses might fit into that scenario.  Expecting the flagship range of Canon cameras to have a mirror flapping up and down while other makers have silent  50 fps global shutter FF systems is 'head in the sand'
