The jury is still out. I have several Contax Zeiss lenses and use manual focus for video. With this adapter the mount is a little loose so when focusing there is noticeable movement in mount. I am trying to decide if it is enough for me to return. I would expect a good fit for the price considering it cost more than most of the prized Zeiss lenses.

I wanted to use my old Nikkor F lenses on my Fuji X series camera bodies. The Metebones adapter works flawlessly with all my lenses. It's great fun to use this old glass again and to rediscover the charm of manually composing images.

New lease on life for old lenses

The Metabones Contax Yashica Lens to Fujifilm X-Mount Camera Matte Black Speed Booster Ultra features an advanced 5-element/4-group optical design incorporating ultra-high index tanatalum-based optical glass to achieve extraordinary optical performance with improved corner sharpness, distortion and reduced vignetting.
Like the revolutionary original Metabones Speed Booster, the Speed Booster Ultra has a magnification of 0.71x and so it effectively reduces the crop factor of mirrorless cameras with DX-sized sensors, such as Sony E-mount and Fuji X-Mount cameras, from 1.5x to 1.07x. However, the new Ultra design makes very effective use of exotic materials at the furthest limit of glassmaking technology and as a result is well corrected for use with virtually all fullframe SLR lenses regardless of exit pupil distance. Thus, the Speed Booster Ultra performs extremely well with professional-grade f/2.8 zoom lenses such as the 24-70mm f/2.8 and 70-200mm f/2.8 zooms by Canon and Nikon to produce 17-50mm f/2.0 and 50-142mm f/2.0 high-speed zooms, respectively. Similarly, high-speed fixed focal length lenses such as a 50mm f/1.2 will be transformed into a 35.5mm f/0.9 lens with excellent contrast and resolution from the center all the way to the edges of the image.
