Just Wondering....

I have several adapters canon ef/efs to MFT....
In fact I have purchased a couple of lenses, rokinons w/ manual focus for the canon SL1 but w/ adapter, get to use focus peaking on my Om 10

....do they make adapters from MFT to canon mounts?
I have several sigmas w/ mounts for MFT, and thot it would be interesting to see if they could be mounted on my Canon SL1.
I haven't had any luck in finding such a creature. Anyone else know about this?

Just wondering.....

No for 2 reasons.
1. The flange distance of M4/3 is much shorter than that of the Nikon EF mount and thus the lens has to protrude deep into the Canon body which is not possible.
2. If you can that is mounting the lens deep inside the body and the mirror is up all the time still the image formed by the M4/3 lens won't cover the entire sensor.
