Speed Booster reviews roundup. MFT version coming in March.
The very first stock of NEX Speed Boosters is shipping on the Metabones site and on [shoplink 36380 ebay]eBay[/shoplink]. What about the MFT versions? Manual focus lenses such as Nikon, Leica R, Contax C/Y, Contarex, ALPA and Rollei will be supported in March, 2013. To get notified when the MFT version will be available you may also save this eBay search on Slidoo (you can change the search country in settings).
Metabones writes that the m4/3 version also reduces focal length by a 0.71x factor. So, the combined focal length multiplier of a m4/3 camera and Speed Booster is 1.4x. (2x from camera x 0.71x from Speed Booster.) The optics are optimized for the smaller sensor size.
That said there are plenty of new tests you have to read to learn more about the quality and features of the new adapter. Dpreview (Click here), EosHD (Click here) and Lensrentals (Click here) tested the Booster. And Robert from LR writes: “The Speed Booster does what they said it would do, much to my shock and surprise“. Overall from what I have seen now the adapters delivers what it promises. And personally I hope they will also make the OM Speed Booster. Suddenly my small collection of OM lenses will be faster…that’s so cool!
