Metabones T Cine Speed Booster XL 0.64X for Canon EF to BMPCC4K

Description

The Metabones T Cine Speed Booster Ultra 0.64X for Canon EF to BMPCC4K is similar to the standard M43 Speed Booster adapters but the optics have been re-designed to optimize for the filter stack thickness of 2.4mm found in Blackmagic cameras rather than the 4mm of a standard Micro Four Thirds.

In addition to optimised optical design, the CINE version is equipped with an extremely robust cine-style positive locking mechanism to ensure that no play occurs during focusing. This is especially important when using EF lenses for cine work because even though they provide a very smooth focus movement.

Metabones Canon EF to BMPCC4K Speed Booster adapters are designed exclusively for Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 4K. They cannot be attached to any other M43 cameras such as JVC, Olympus or Panasonic cameras.

The BMPCC4K Speed Booster XL 0.64x reduces the crop factor of the BMPCC 4K camera from 2.02x to 1.29x and produces the largest aperture optics currently available, with a maximum output aperture of f/0.8.
