キャノンEFレンズをソニーEマウントカメラに装着できるアダプタです。最新のSony FS7 Mark II、Sony α6500にて動作確認済みです。
アダプター内にCaldwell社製の5枚4群レンズが内蔵され、0.71倍ワイド化しF値を1段明るくできるSpeed Booster ULTRA搭載モデルです。焦点距離を0.71倍にする事で35mm換算のレンズをほぼフルサイズで利用する事が出来るようになりました。また光も同時に集光させる事で開放値も1段分明るくなり、アダプターに内蔵のレンズによりMTF値、シャープネス、コントラストも向上される仕様となっています。
新たに50以上の機能を割り当てができるカスタムファンクションボタン、ホコリや湿気の侵入を防ぎセンサーを保護するラバーガスケットプロテクション、アダプタの動作を通知するLEDインジゲータ、レンズ内手ブレ補正機構とボディ内手ブレ補正機構を制御する切り替えスイッチを搭載しました。 従来通り電子接点によるオートフォーカス、EXIF情報、手ブレ補正等に対応します。
フェルト材料を採用したフロックコーティング処理により、アダプタ内に入った光の反射を抑えフレアを低減します。チルトシフトレンズ使用時などのパフォーマンス改善や逆光等の強い光の条件でさらに画質改善を行いました。

※補足注意事項
・Lenses marked with an asterisk support smooth iris.
・Sony NEX cameras cannot display aperture values beyond f/1.0. If a f/1.2 Canon EF lens is used with Speed Booster ULTRA the resulting aperture is f/0.9 but the camera body displays the original aperture f/1.2 to the camera body. i.e, lenses slower than f/1.4 report boosted aperture to camera body; lenses at or faster than f/1.4 report original aperture to camera body. (with firmware later than V0.38)
・Some improperly-made M42 screw mount adapters may short the electronic contacts of the Speed Booster ULTRA and cause damage to the Speed Booster ULTRA and/or camera body.
・Many manual focus lenses (e.g. OM 28/2.8, OM 50/1.8, Leica R 15/3.5) have rear protrusions (spikes, levers, other appendages) which would damage the optics and/or housing of Speed Booster ULTRA They need to be modified before they can be safely used on Speed Booster Check and make sure there are no rear protrusions from the adapter/lens combination before using on Speed Booster. Scratches and damages caused by rear protrusions on Speed Booster are not covered by warranty.
・This Speed Booster ULTRA is NOT fully compatible with full-frame Sony A7 series. When Speed Booster® ULTRA is used with Sony A7 series, the camera will turn on the “APS-C Size Capture” mode automatically.
・Unstable due to unusually high current requirement.
●制約事項
※Optical/mechanical
・Full-frame lens required. EF-S/DX/DC/Di II lenses are NOT supported.
・Speed Booster ULTRA is designed to cover an APS-C image circle which is not big enough to cover a full-size 36mm x 24mm sensor. On a full frame camera body (A7 series, NEX-VG900) the camera needs to have “APS-C/Super 35mm” set to either “Auto” or “On”.
※Autofocus
・AF-C is supported on A9, A7RII, A7II, A6500 and A6300 only, and only in Green mode.
・Continuous video AF is functional in Advanced mode, but performance may be unsatisfactory.
・On Sony A9, only phase-detection autofocus is supported. Contrast-detection autofocus does not work. See firmware release notes for details.
・AF may not work if the maximum aperture of the lens plus any EF Extender or other teleconverter attached is smaller than f/8 before boost or smaller than f/5.6 after boost.
・The first two autofocus attempts are used to calibrate the lens and as a result may not lock successfully on the target. Half-press the shutter release button again and autofocus will lock successfully.
・Autofocus may have difficultly locking onto subjects which are very close to the nearest focusing distance of the lens.
・Autofocus accuracy depends heavily on the design and working condition of the lens. Lenses with hidden problems which may not be apparent on Canon DSLRs will lead to inaccurate and unreliable autofocus on Sony. Typical problems of this kind that we have seen include an unsmooth/erratic autofocus mechanism (e.g. getting stuck intermittently at a certain focusing distance), a faulty/worn-out distance encoder or other faulty/worn-out internal sensors.
※Other
・No support for lens corrections such as peripheral shading, CA and distortion.
・Use of Canon Cinema lenses such as CN-E 18-80mm T4.4 for still photography is not supported. (Functional, but slower than lenses designed for still photography.)
・Some EF-mount lenses may make audible noises during iris changes and autofocus, wich may be picked up by the built-in microphone of the camera during video recording. Use of an external microphone is advised. Some of the recently-introduced Canon-brand lenses are very quiet, however.
・Early Tamron VC lenses such as the AF 28-300/3.5-6.3 XR Di VC LD Aspherical [IF] Macro (model A20), AF 18-270/3.5-6.3 Di II VC LD Aspherical [IF] MACRO (model B003), SP AF 17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II VC LD Aspherical [IF] (model B005) may not be able to freely switch between OIS and IBIS because they may not report IS activity status. Later Tamron VC lenses equipped with USD or PZD focus motors are fine.
・Some aftermarket battery grips may cause the aperture to change erraneously. This is a bug of the aftermarket battery grip but NOT arising from the Metabones Speed Booster. Turn off the aftermarket battery grip or use a genuine Sony battery grip.
