  • Support for cameras with in-body image stabilization (IBIS)
  • Electronic manual focusing (e.g. EF 85/1.2L II and discontinued EF 50/1.0L)
  • EXIF (focal length, aperture, zoom range)
  • Distance and zoom display (requires lenses supporting distance information)
  • Cinema EOS lens support (CN-E 18-80mm T4.4 L), including AF (may require external 5V power through micro USB port), auto iris and servo zoom
  • SUPPORT Panasonic Tele-Convertor (DMW-TC14, DMW-TC20 and DMW-TC20A);

Other

  • Patented positive-lock EF lens mount.
  • The tripod foot is detachable and compatible with Arca Swiss, Markins and Photo Clam ball heads.
  • Flocking to reduce internal reflection.
  • Rubber gasket protects the MFT mount connection from dust and moisture.
  • Compatible with all MFT mount cameras, including G9II, GH7, GH6, GH5, OM-1, OM-D, Blackmagic Cinema Camera, Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera and JVC GY-LS300.
  • Supports EF-S lenses.
 
  • AF may not work if the maximum aperture of the lens plus any EF Extender or other teleconverter attached is smaller than f/8.
  • Some Tamron lenses may have unsatisfactory AF accuracy.
  • No support for Focus Stacking and Focus Bracketing on Olympus.
  • EF-mount lenses are not silent but may make audible click noises during autofocus operation and iris changes which may be picked up by the built-in microphone of the camera. An external microphone is recommended for video.
  • Use of Canon Cinema lenses such as CN-E 18-80mm T4.4 L IS KAS S for still photography is not supported.
  • Iris changes are in 1/8 stop steps which may be noticeable in video recordings. Programmed exposure mode and shutter priority exposure mode should not be used for video. This limitation does not apply to Cinema EOS lenses which permit fine resolution iris control, such as CN-E 18-80mm T4.4 L IS KAS S.
  • No support for in-camera correction such as peripheral shading, CA and distortion

* If C-AF and C-AF-TR becomes greyed out on OM System OM-1, try turning on the "Keystone Correction" option on the camera, and then turn it off.

Note(2) Accurate only on newer cameras such as Panasonic G7, GX8 and GX80/85.

Note (3) Some improperly-made M42 screw mount adapters may short the electronic contacts of the Speed Booster/ Smart Adapter and cause damage to the adapter and/or camera body.

Why Metabones®?

Since its inception, Metabones has been designing and manufacturing lens adapters recognized among professionals and enthusiasts as leaders in design and workmanship.

Contrary to the popular trend of other factories using an aluminum ring painted black on the camera-body-side, we instead take no short-cut but use precision-machined brass with chromium plating on both the camera-body and the lens sides of our adapters, in order to ensure smooth mounting, great appearance, and durability. The lens side of the adapter features a strong leaf-spring structure, strengthening the adapter-lens connection and ensuring tightness of the lens in order to reduce wear and prevent focus errors and optical alignment issues from appearing.

Metabones uses matte-black treatment to keep internal reflection to a minimum in order to maintain the maximum optical quality possible with the lens.

All Metabones Adapters follow this tradition of uncompromising precision, robust build quality and outstanding finish. Our new Smart AdapterTM series of products add industry-leading electronic interfacing technology from Canada, with true electronic control of the lens' aperture directly from the camera body.
