Canon video lens - EOS adapter.... available?

[Ljung]

know that it is possible to mount EOS lenses on XL with an adapter, but how about the other way round?

I think it is not possible, because the video lenses are designed to work with a very small sensor. And if there was such an adapter available, the video lenses would be super wide on a still camera (I think the XL2 20x zoom is 5.4mm - 108mm).

By the way, what would you be wanting to do with this combination?

I meant what would you be wanting to snap? Some ultra-wide landscape or what? Cos it's not much fun carrying that 20x lens around unless you have a real use for it.

You can't, the XL lenses are a smaller format than the EF lenses. It like using non L lenses on EOS 5D or 1Ds or 1Ds MkII
