Re: Sony A7 and A7r Full Frame with Canon Lenses


Okay, guys, I was a while offline because I was outside and actually taking photos with my 5D MkII cameras . I recommend we all enjoy the beautiful fall weather (where ever this is possible climate-wise).

I have a question in regard to the Metabones adapter which can be used with the A7(R) cameras: it looks like there could be potentially two of them used with Canon EF lenses, one with the glass element (improving the lens speed by one stop indirectly by its built) and the other MkII/III(?) one which functions just like an extension tube without glass element. For the latter one - I didn\'t find described anywhere how many stops of light is lost with this adapter. Does anybody know?

CORRECTION: I just saw that Metabones updated their website in regard to the MkII adapter stating it does not work with the Sony A7 series.
So this leaves us with the option of using the one with the glass element (called speed booster) only?
