There also probably just isn’t any demand for such an adapter, commercially speaking.

Will EF lens fit on EF-S mount?

The short answer to your question is yes, an EF lens can be used on a crop-sensor (EF-S) Canon camera. The longer answer is that EF-S lenses are designed for crop-sensor lenses, the ‘s’ denotes a smaller image circle, but it’s otherwise a compatible mount.

Do all Canon lenses fit on mirrorless? No, crop sensor cameras (all Rebel cameras, 40/50/60D, and the 7D) can take EF or EF-S lenses. Full frame cameras (all 1D, 5D and 6D) only take EF lenses. The mirrorless camera (EOS-M) use EF-M lenses, but can use EF and EF-S with an adapter.

Is EF-M and EF the same? The difference is in the flange focal distance, i.e. the distance between the mounting flange for the lens and the film/sensor. Canon’s EF-M has an 18mm flange focal distance, compared to 44mm for the EF and EF-S systems.

Can I use EF-S lens on RF mount?

Using EF-S lenses on the RF mount

Why are RF lenses so expensive?

1 — They are new and therefore in short supply. 2 — there are a lot of r&d costs which have to be recouped and the market for RF lenses is currently smaller than the market for EF lenses. This means each lens sold has to pay back a larger share of the r&d costs.

Why are RF lenses so big? The RF mount’s large diameter allows wider lens elements to be placed closer to the sensor, reducing the need to bend the light rays as smaller-diameter lens mounts do: The larger-diameter Canon RF lens mount.
