Metabones Nikon G & F-Mount Lens to Sony E-Mount Camera Speed Booster ULTRA

The�Nikon G & F-Mount Lens to Sony E-Mount Camera Speed Booster ULTRA�from�Metabones�improves upon the original Metabones Speed Booster with a 5 element/4 group optical design that incorporates ultra-high refractive index tantalum-based glass�for improved sharpness and reduced distortion and vignetting. The Speed Booster ULTRA allows a full frame Nikon F-Mount lens to be mounted to an APS-C format�E-Mount camera and in doing so, increases the angle of view and increases the maximum aperture by approximately one f/stop.�It is compatible with NIKKOR F mount and F Mount G lenses including AI and non-AI mounts.�

When a lens intended for full frame sensors or 35mm film is mounted to a camera with an APS-C sized sensor, it transmits a larger�area of light than the�smaller sensor was built to accept and therefore the effective angle of view of the lens decreases. The Speed Booster condenses light from the lens and projects it onto the APS-C sensor allowing the sensor to utilize all of the lens' light and effectively�reduces the crop factor of and APS-C E-Mount camera from 1.5x to 1.07x,�producing a full-frame angle of view with an APS-C sensor. A corresponding�increase�in the maximum aperture of�one f/stop makes the lens more effective in low-light situations and able to create a shallow depth of field.�

Metabones�Speed Boosters�are quality made using precision-machined brass with chromium plating on both the camera body and the lens side of the�booster in order to ensure smooth mounting, quality aesthetic, and durability. This adapter has a detachable tripod foot that is compatible with Arca Swiss, Markins, and Photo Clam ball heads.

Although the lens will fit physically, automatic diaphragm (AE metering), or other auto functions are not retained using this speed booster. A built-in clickless aperture control ring enables manual control of aperture from the speed booster. This 8-stop ring with clearly marked 1/2-stop markings is shipped as clickless.�These speed�boosters�are only fully compatible�with mirrorless cameras�housing APS-C or smaller�image sensors.�They will physically fit the Sony full frame mirrorless cameras, but the camera must be set in Crop Mode to fully support the speed booster's functions.

�

Note: This Speed Booster ULTRA�is NOT fully compatible with full-frame Sony A7, A7R and A7S.�When the Speed Booster� are used with Sony A7, A7R or A7S the camera is required to be used in the "APS-C Size Capture" mode.
