(UPDATED) Metabones Speed Booster adapter will be made for OM lenses too!

Share

Metabones created the buzz of the week when back on Monday they announced the new Speed Booster adapter. By narrow the image circle of FF or APS-C lenses they can increase the speed of a lens used on a MFT sensor. But they didn’t yet unveil what mounts will be supported. Our reader Knut (Thanks) was able to contact the Metabones manager and they confirmed to him that Metabones will do an OM to MFT Speed Booster adapter!

UPDATE_2: Here is the Metabones pdf file that explains how to do the math. An example, the [shoplink 28872 ebay]35mm f/2.0 OM lens[/shoplink] on the Speed Booster becomes a 25mm f/1.4 lens.
