APSC lens on R8 via Adapter?? In the video by Antony Gugliotta, he attached the new APSc RF lens onto a R8, and it just works. It automatically switched to “apsc mode”?? If so can I get the same via an eos to rf adapter? I planned to buy the R7, because I didn’t have the cash to buy new lenses right away, and was going to reuse my existing sigma and tamron APSC lenses. But i…

The lens is a Burnside 35, which was/is made in Canon EF, Fujifilm X, Micro Four Thirds, Nikon …

While I want to ha…
