p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · TS-E lenses on mirrorless via adapter - how?


I read several times that some thought about using a TS-E lens (of the new type II) on a mirrorless, Nex or Fuji etc.
I instinctively thought that this was a great idea, however there is of course the question how to control the aperture, because the TS-E Mk II have no aperture ring.

So is there a simple solution how to shoot a TS-E II (17 or 24mm) on a Fuji X? Of course there are simple adapters EF to XF, but they don't control aperture.

Thanks
Bernie

Hi,

I'm not sure about the Fuji, but with a Metabones v.III adapter I've put a 17tse on a Sony a7r. It gives me aperture control via the camera dials.

Unfortunately, Metabones doesn't make an EF to X Speedbooster or Smart Adapter III. Yet...

Benie,

I am not totally positive if the 17mm TSE was used with the Metabones. III adapter but it was on the Sony A7r:

Here I think he confirms that it is a Metabones adapter:
