I love my speed booster. You can also remove the EFS adapter from some of the EFS lenses, and they will work with the speed booster also. I actually cut the plastic EFS mount off of my EFS 10-18mm lens so I could use it with the speed booster on my Canon M6-II and it works GREAT for video when I need a wide angle.

The easy answer is get both. You need both. And while you are on it also buy a tele-converter. (However it might be a bit complicated to get a Metabones EF-M / EF speedbooster ... since they ship from HongKong) and no shop has them on the shelf. Some has the viltrox... but that´s comes with visibly inferior image quality in regards of sharpness.

The speedbooster with an EF 35mm F2 IS will also perform good in low light scenarios and you have the image stabilisation in the lens that helps a lot for shaky footage. Best all around upgrade that you can easily resell if you want later is a used Canon 24-105 F4 L IS with the viltrox speedbooster. You will have great quality for photos and videos (unmatched at this price at least for photos) as it offers great is and optics.

Hi Mark - so would the booster essentially turn a EF-M 11-22mm into a (rounded up) 8-16mm lens, with the bonus of having it a few f-stops lower increasing the overall aperture? I like the idea of just having to buy the booster without buying such an expensive lens for the same result, as a wide aperture, zoomable lens with a decent range is very pricey. So I wouldn't mind a small degrade in quality if it meant I can achieve a slightly wider FOV as well as having a few f-stops lower.

A lot of lenses are sharper in the center than in the periphery. An adapter will crop off the periphery effectively giving you a sharper image than on a full frame camera. An ideal adapter which introduces no distortion will preserve the peripheral distortion of the full frame lens. Real life lenses will of course introduce transmission effects.

After buying virtually every EF-M lens focal length available and taking them traveling with me I've decided I just need a 15-45 mm (24-70 FF equiv) but fast. The kit lens is not fast enough. My 22mm pancake is nice but not wide enough on my M6 II. Now I'm looking at EF lenses and using the speedbooster to try to get me into the focal length that I need. The problem is lenses with that range that are fast are already very large and heavy and then adding the speedbooster makes them uncomfortable. Oh, how I wish Canon's 24mm was an EF and not an EF-S lens. Anyone have any suggestions on a 24-70mm FF equiv fast lens for EF-M either using an adapter or speedbooster? I find myself leaving my 22mm f/2, 32mm F/1.4 and 56mm f/1.4 in the hotel when traveling. There are wider zooms but slooowww. There are wide fast primes but they're primes.

This is likely just the shallow area that becomes in focus with the speed booster. From a movement perspective, looking at camera shake, the speed booster allows you to achieve higher shutter speeds, so should be even less prone to camera movement than the adapter.

I have a M50 mark II. I recently purchased a speed booster. However, when I use it with a Tokina 11-16mm lens I get vignetting on 11-13mm focal lengths. Is this normal or a defect? Do I need to change a setting to remove the vignetting?
@markwiemels2 жыл бұрын
That’s an APS-C lens, the speed booster takes a full frame image and squeezes it onto the smaller sensor. So essentially that lens and the speed booster are not meant to go together, so yes, what you are seeing is normal.

Hello friend , can I ask you about my canon m50 mark 2 . I want to use it with Meike adapter Eos M to Eos ef without speedbooster (NO SPEEDBOOSTER ) + Meike 85mm f1.8 ! Problem: the problem is I got a mesege in the start , this message >Push and hold the lens switch in 🔼 direction and then rotate the lens to enable shooting< Soo, the problem is , the Meike 85mm f1.8 it doesn’t have any botton for rotate . Please can you help me thank you !

Sorry, I have never seen that problem, I don't have a solution for you. Try googling it.
@tzehoutan6392 Жыл бұрын
U need to go to the menu to enable shooting in the condition without attaching a lense. Once u do this, when u plug in the adapter, don't fully lock it and you will be good to go. If you have a speedbooster , after the firmware update on it you should be good to go with your Meike 85mm

Question for you. I have a M50 and a collection of 5 EF-M glass. I'm just a photographer with no EF lens. Do you think its worth it to start investing in a speed booster, Adapter and EF glass or in the long run just better to go with a RF second camera like RP and/or R7? PS I do want a second camera. The question is over the value of delaying getting a second camera.
@markwiemels2 жыл бұрын
The EF lenses do allow you to use them with RF cameras, and they are more affordable than RF lenses. RP is a lot of camera for the money, I’m a big fan.
@okaro65952 жыл бұрын
Buy lenses for a need not as an investment. If you need a new lens you might consider adapting EF lenses for future compatibility. Of you go to EOS R later then you likely want to buy RF lenses so the EF lenses would be a compromise.

I beleive you are wrong about speed boosters always reducing resolution. The speed booster does need to consider the lens design. A well corrected lens is going to send the light to the sensors in cones with points st the sensor. The speed booster only needs to increase that angle and it is the same range over then entire frame, regardless of the lens focal length or aperture. If the original lens has aberrations the speed booster may make it worse but I have used speed boosters on my Nikkor 180mm f/2.8 AI and it still out resolves my APS sensor. My experiencxe is that these work very well on very good, sharp lenses at full aperture..

I recently read a comment (not on yours) that the Viltrox adaptor has a shiny black surface on the inside which bounces stray light on the sensor. I have and use both the VILTROX adaptor and booster and the interiors of both are matt and I've never experienced the light flash he described have you?

Lens: Canon EF 17-40 F4 L Camera: Canon 5D mk ii & Sony A7ii Adpater: Viltrox EF Nex IV If i use canon FF sensor lens on canon FF camera and i shot on 17mm fl, the image output will be exactly 17mm wide. When i use canon ff lens on sony ff camera body with the adapter & i do the same shooting on 17mm, would i get same result? I mean i get exactly 17mm wide image, or it will be different like wider or narrower image because there's something called mount conversion factor? I ask this because im new to this adapter, and i want my canon lens work exactly like on my canon ff body.
