Metabones Speed Booster Ultra 0.71x Adapter for Leica R-Mount Lens to Micro Four Thirds-Mount Camera

Under the meticulous craftsmanship of Metabones, the Speed Booster Ultra 0.71x Adapter emerges as an essential tool for photographers and videographers aiming to maximize the performance of their Leica R-Mount lenses on Micro Four Thirds-mount cameras. This precision-engineered adapter not only facilitates the attachment of a wide array of Leica R lenses to MFT cameras but also enhances the lens speed and field of view.

The adapter's advanced optical design includes five elements in four groups, incorporating ultra-high index tantalum-based glass for superior clarity and sharpness. The 0.71x magnification factor effectively reduces the crop factor of Micro Four Thirds cameras from 2.0x to 1.4x, thereby expanding the angle of view and increasing the maximum aperture by 1 stop. This means your f/2.8 lens now performs like an f/2.0 lens, capturing more light and enabling shallower depth of field.

Built with precision and durability in mind, the Speed Booster Ultra features a robust metal construction that ensures a secure and solid connection between the camera and lens, maintaining electronic communication for autofocus and aperture control. The adapter's matte black interior minimizes internal reflections, while its removable tripod mount helps to balance heavy lenses and provides additional support.

The Metabones Speed Booster Ultra 0.71x Adapter is a game-changer for Leica R-Mount lens owners who use Micro Four Thirds cameras, offering enhanced functionality without compromising on image quality. Whether shooting stills or video, this adapter is designed to unlock new creative possibilities and breathe new life into classic lenses.
