Canon XL2 lens to Canon EOS adapter at DVinfo.net

Greetings,
First time post'er here. I've seen the EF adapter to adapt std. Canon lenses to the XL2 but is there such a device as to adapt the 20X video camera lens to a Canon EOS body? Just thought I'd ask. I just bought a Canon T1i and thought, WOW, what I could get out of this lens. Just thought I'd ask.

Tanx in adv.

No such thing, because the image circle from the XL series
lens wouldn't begin to fill the frame on an EOS body. You'd
get a mostly black frame with a small circle of video in the
middle. Welcome to DVi, by the way!
