I think a lot of pros will add a crop-frame mirrorless camera to their kit when Canon release their speed booster (and a decent EF-M body, which will probably be at the same time).
The ability to use existing full-frame lenses at the same focal lengths on a mirrorless camera, and gain a stop of light-gathering ability, will be a big draw.
- justincormack 13y agoNot really, they will still be much bigger due to retrofocus than a dedicated mirrorless lens. Lens redesign is needed really to make the most of it.
- abirkill 13y agoI'm not suggesting that this will be the final evolution, merely a tipping point that I suspect will see Canon's mirrorless offerings take off. Pros are going to be very reluctant to start buying several thousand dollars of lenses in a new and unproven (longevity-wise) lens mount, but may well buy a $1000 camera if an adapter lets it accept all of their existing lenses, keep the same focal length, and also turn their 16-35mm f/2.8 into a 16-35mm f/1.8.
