Re: Will Canon allow EF lenses to work on future RF bodies?

When I purchased my first DSLR, a Canon 5D in 2008, word was that EF mount lenses used with film cameras would be compatible with the 5D, although with manual focus in some or all cases.

Being new to Canon at that time, I did not have an arsenal of lenses, but reflecting on the new technology creating a bridge to past tech was a reassuring thought.

We're now at a similar point in the evolution of Canon tech. The fact that Canon has produced not one but three versions of EF to R adapter again provides a deep sense of reassurance, bridging the past wth the present.
