    Can someone tell me if this is a micro 4/3 system? I am not sure if the "full frame" has to do with that or not. As an owner of 3 micro 4/3 bodies, I would love to see more lenses come to the market.
    No, unfortunately when it comes to prosumer interchangeable lenses, full frame is as close to the complete opposite of micro 4/3's as you can get- Full frame refers to the sensor size (equivalent to 35mm film) below that is the APS-C sized sensor which is on cameras from Fuji and many consumer DSLRs, smaller than that is micro 4/3's the 4/3's refers to 1 and 1/3 inch diagonal of the sensor size.

    So no the lenses for the EOS R would have a mount size far bigger than that of a 4/3's.
