The flange focal distance for EF-S is 44mm, just like for EF. By comparison, the flange focal distance for micro 4/3 is 20mm and for Sony E-mount is 18mm.
If Canon makes a mirrorless system that is compatible with EF and EF-S lenses, it will not be a small camera body. They wiill give up the big advantage of mirrorless to maintain compatibility with lenses designed to leave room for a mirror.

A non-reflex design. Sure they've been around since day one, and the majority of film cameras were mirrorless without having to point it out, but the kids these days (mainly the ones working in the sale dept.) like to come up with new terms for old ideas.
Yup. AF (especially with motor in lens) and in lens IS both add bulk. I don't want to give up either, Canon has already spoiled me on that matter. Could give up these features for a viewcamera or medium format that will always live on a tripod. But not a handheld camera.But once again I'm back to wondering why a small, mf 50mm f/1.4 lens for 35mm film can be half the size of the same for my 35mm DSLR. Is it the AF?
