p.1 #4 · p.1 #4 · Anyone compared Kipon adapter to Metabones? | |
Right. Understandable.... who wouldn't like to save some money?
The guy I sold my E-M1 to decided to save and got a Commlite. It works pretty well with his Canon 300/4 and the 400/5.6 he also bought from me, but that was about it. He has a whole collection of lenses, and aside from a couple Sigmas and maybe a Tamron 150-600, it could not come close to the Metabones. Kipon is not at all well known here. Might be worth giving one a try....
Any way you cut it, adapting lenses is always going to be a compromise. Sure, I would love faster AF and C-AF and tracking and all that, but it ain't happening, so I try to accept the shortcomings and make the most out of the strengths. I will have a look around on the European forums. Maybe there is something to be learnd about the Kipon.
In general, from what I have been able to find out, opinions are pretty mixed regarding the Kipon, where the Metabones is well accepted.
