Canon lens adapter for RED

I know there is an adapter for the canon lens to attach to the RED camera, however
I can't find anywhere where I can rent it.
does anyone know of a place?
Also how efficient is this on set?
Is it worth it to rent this lens adapter or buy it rather than renting prime lenses for the RED?

Well thanks to everyone in advanced.

I did some research for you. There is a mount made by http://www.birger.com/ that is pretty expensive like $1285 I think. But maybe sine you are using red that is not an issue? It looks like you can do a remote focus with the birger mount and that is why it is so expensive but the remote is an extra $700 additional money. You can use cannon lenses with it of course. Read more about it at those two websites. Let me know what you think or if you find something better. I think you may be able to rent it here http://www.redonerental.net/canonbirgermountinfo.php . I don't know much about eaither company but maybe some one here does.

Here is Birger prices http://www.birger.com/pdf/cinema_order_form.pdf
