No experience but yes seems to be the answer to the FD question. I just put "Canon FD to RF adapter" into Google and there are a number avaialable (at least here in the UK). Happy hunting.

I bought an FD-RF adapter and regularly use my old FD lenses on the R5 (just for fun). The only downside of course is that there is no AF.

Ah sorry - I read the "?" Re-reading it is fairly obvious you use them already - oops

As I posted in an earlier post here, I had pre-ordered the Canon RF 45F 1.2 lens on Nov 7th, literally the day after it was possible to pre-order.
I just got an email from B&H that my credit card has been charged which should mean the lens is in their house and being prepared for shipping. Woo hoo. Can’t wait!

Having bought some more gear this fall, I have got to the point where storing it in mu bag is not convenient. I have long envied the TrekPack system but did not want to get another storage box for my office. Instead I decided to repurpose the two 14x17 file drawers in my computer desk and build my own “TrekPack-style” padding and dividers. I am pretty happy with the results and saved a bunch of cash (for more gear?). I havw another drawer to do, and will also add plastic organizer trays to the “pencil” drawer for bits and bobs.
Let me know what you think.

Mother is the necessity of invention, or something... Nice job!

Ok, so I posted a while back that I have ordered the new Canon RF 45mm f/1.2! They (B&H) just charged my card, so presumably the camera is in their hands and being processed for shipping. I decided, since Alphagvrd was having a sale on their lens skins, do go ahead and buy a skin for this lens (most of my lenses and my R5 have Alphagvrd skins). This is the skin I got, (but not the lens obviously). The skin is called Nocturnal Waves.

Woo hoo! The Canon RF 45mm f/1.2 I pre-ordered on Nov 7th has shipped! ETA Friday, Dec 5th!

I've also repurposed a few drawers of my office file cabinet for gear. No dividers like you have, but I have lined the drawers with 1" thick 'Pick & Pull' foam from The Foam Factory. Like many folks here, I have a substantial investment in electronics and optics - spending $20 to ensure it is well-padded seems like a no-brainer.
