Mark, describing the difference in such a way that it is easier for a beginner to understand, i appreciate.
I own the Adapter but now i will get the speed booster because now i understand the options it will provide me.
Thank you for what you are doing, and the link.
So good to hear! Thanks for the feedback!
I love my speed booster. You can also remove the EFS adapter from some of the EFS lenses, and they will work with the speed booster also. I actually cut the plastic EFS mount off of my EFS 10-18mm lens so I could use it with the speed booster on my Canon M6-II and it works GREAT for video when I need a wide angle.
Do you have a tutorial how you did it? I'm interested.
I’m watching your videos and despite English isn’t my main language, your explanations are so clear, that i sometimes understand the theme better with your videos than with videos on my native language. Great work!
That's great! Thank you so much for sharing!
I love my M50ii! But after watching countless videos of creators jumping ship to Sony, part of me wonders whether or not it’s worthwhile sticking around to see what’s up with the EF or EF-M series… would love your point-of-view in any upcoming videos!
That's a good idea for an up coming video, I will add it to the list. Out of curiosity, what is the Canon M50 not doing, that you think you are missing?
@@markwiemels I love my m6 mark ii, but I'm really missing a fast super wide angle auto focus lens for it. There's the Samyang 12mm f2, but the auto focus version for ef-m doesn't exist.
@@markwiemels It’s doing a great job for what I need but any time I think of upgrading beyond the kit lens, there are so many opinions about “don’t invest in EF or EF-M lenses coz Canon hasn’t” so then I’m stuck wondering what to do. Mainly my issues are:
1. Longer than 30-minute record time in one go (I use a decoupler when I’m home but not if shooting yoga/meditation videos outside).
2. Image stabilisation that doesn’t crop in so much when turned on (eg. Vlog type shots)
3. A faster, wider lens with autofocus (I just don’t use it at all at night and would love to!)
Thanks Mark!
@@jaimetan Vlogging with the m50 in 1080p with digital IS on (not enhanced) is doable especially if you have a lens with is. if you want more than that you have to upgrade. The speedbooster with an EF 35mm F2 IS will also perform good in low light scenarios and you have the image stabilisation in the lens that helps a lot for shaky footage. Best all around upgrade that you can easily resell if you want later is a used Canon 24-105 F4 L IS with the viltrox speedbooster. You will have great quality for photos and videos (unmatched at this price at least for photos) as it offers great is and optics. Also the lens would be at a constant F2.8 at all focal lengths (a bit heavy and bulkier set up though)
@@stathorinoakenshield6331 thanks so much for your considered reply! I’ll definitely look into these suggestions… but like I mentioned - with all the shiny new features Sony includes in their cameras that so many TH-camrs are now embracing, part of me wonders whether I still want to consider investing in Canon… 😅
Good summary, I started with the adapter and have since bought the speed booster. I tend to have my nifty50 on the speed booster for the wider angle and bokeh effect, then the adapter on my zoom lens. Great combo I reckon, although my speed booster seems to be missing it's software... Still works and I normally manually focus anyhow. Im on the old m3 but still takes fantastic shots.
Hi, Mark!
Thank you so much for every single one of your videos, really great.
I just get the M50 mark ii and a good guide like this is really helpful, I hope you keep making content for the M50, at least for the M mount, beginners like me need comprensibles messages like yours.
Hope you doing fine, gracias.
Thanks for the kind words! I'm doing my best!
Nope. The f-stop doesnt change the aperture so speedbooser doesnt affect the dof by itself. It does that because it changes fov and the distance from the subject changes. Dof is not shallower compared to ff but you get more light.
And I almost sold my adapter since I had the speed booster. Now I’m keeping them both. Thank you for sharing
Yes, once I got the speed booster that’s one thing that jumped out at me, all these lenses are now two lenses. Glad it was helpful, happy shooting.
Great summary (as usual)! I have both for very specific reasons. I have the straight adapter for use on my EF-S 55-250 which gives longer reach than the native M lens in that category at a lower price point, and also for my Sigma 17-50mm fixed f/2.8 zoom which is a lovely (albeit bulkier) replacement for the kit lens and great in low light. But I have the Speed Booster for use with my vintage Helios M44-2 EF mount adapted lens for exactly the reasons you described - namely, the intended wider field of view and the artistic effect of the classic “swirly Bokeh” with that lens.
I have tried the speed booster with the Hellios, It makes a pretty wild image!
Opinions on the internet:
“Bullets can kill you!”
“That’s a lie, I’ve shot myself twice a day for the last 30 years and have never felt better.”
so if i were to buy sigma 18-35/1.8 DC HSM CANON and mount it to canon m50 mark II... then should i get a speed booster? that's gonna be my first youtube setup so sorry if u are get tired of those questions.. - would really really appreciate ur recommendation! (just need a wide lense cuz sigma 16 f.14 turnt out to be to narrow for the small room i am shooting at)
Hi can you recommend the best speed booster and adapter for the Canon 90D Thanks!
There is no EF adapter for that camera.
Hi Mark - so would the booster essentially turn a EF-M 11-22mm into a (rounded up) 8-16mm lens, with the bonus of having it a few f-stops lower increasing the overall aperture? I like the idea of just having to buy the booster without buying such an expensive lens for the same result, as a wide aperture, zoomable lens with a decent range is very pricey. So I wouldn't mind a small degrade in quality if it meant I can achieve a slightly wider FOV as well as having a few f-stops lower.
The speed booster adapts EF lenses to work on EF-M cameras, so doesn’t work on EF-M 11-22mm, but other than that yes, wider field of view and larger aperture (more light).
Thanks for this review. I don't mind if it gives my pictures a more vintage look.. I have a Yongnuo 35mm F2 lens I use on my 90D and R7 and its sharp, but nothing compared to a Canon 35mm. But I love the look and its one of my absolute favorite prime lenses. Just give my images a unique vibe
I'm still confused. So I am an aspiring real estate photographer. I have a Canon M50 Mark ll. I bought a EF-M 11-22mm F4.0-5.6 IS STM Lens. Because of the crop factor of 1.6 my 11mm becomes 17.6mm. IF I get a speed booster will I have a larger field of view more accurate to 11mm or 12mm?
Hello, excellent video! Question: I have an excellent Nikkor 50mm 1.2 lens I want to use on my M50. I got an adapter for Nikkor to EF-M but the crop factor is to big. What would be an effective way to fit than lens to my camera in all "full frame glory", so to speak? Thanks!
Which one would you say is best for shooting beauty content or vlogging? Thanks
I beleive you are wrong about speed boosters always reducing resolution. The speed booster does need to consider the lens design. A well corrected lens is going to send the light to the sensors in cones with points st the sensor. The speed booster only needs to increase that angle and it is the same range over then entire frame, regardless of the lens focal length or aperture.
If the original lens has aberrations the speed booster may make it worse but I have used speed boosters on my Nikkor 180mm f/2.8 AI and it still out resolves my APS sensor.
My experiencxe is that these work very well on very good, sharp lenses at full aperture..
I have both adapter and speedbooster and I regret I bought speedbooster. Image quality degradation is huge. Only center of the image is acceptable, rest, especially near the corners is a dissaster. It's a waste of money. Yeh, photos look like from full frame but only in screen resolution.
I have a M50 mark II. I recently purchased a speed booster. However, when I use it with a Tokina 11-16mm lens I get vignetting on 11-13mm focal lengths. Is this normal or a defect? Do I need to change a setting to remove the vignetting?
That’s an APS-C lens, the speed booster takes a full frame image and squeezes it onto the smaller sensor. So essentially that lens and the speed booster are not meant to go together, so yes, what you are seeing is normal.
Thank you for this video - almost went with a speed booster but only have EFS lenses so that would have been a huge mistake. Appreciate the info!
Oh boy, imagine the speed booster for Fuji X-Mount. I really want to have my SONY E lenses on my XT-1
best Speed Boosters are from METABONES, but they are very expensive :D
Most of my lenses are EFS or M lenses. My only EF lens is the 50mm 1.8. No need for the speed booster for the 50mm lens, since I have a Sigma 30mm 1.4.
So…I just use the Viltrox non-speed booster adaptor.
Yes, thats a good lens set.
why dont use the viltrox 33mm or 56mm that already have ef m mount? Is this not quality enough?
Why don't they make a higher quality speedbooster?
0:23 I mean most of these optics have too many elements anyway so adding a extra element that is good quality isn't going to hurt.
I have both Viltrox adapter and speedbooster. I got a M6 mark II. Now that everyone is buying the RF lenses, I am still using EF, EF-S and EF-M lenses that I already have.
....and you can adapt them to an RF camera some day too.
I won't be getting any "R" cameras. I have reached my limit .
@@tonykeltsflorida haha… I wouldn’t bet my life on it ;-)
Hello Mark, the Artisan plain adapter coming from China is a reliable one?
I have both. I love the fact that it’s almost like having 2 focal lengths in one lens. I want an almost actual 50mm? Speed booster. I want 85mm? Adapter. Also I’ll definitely buy a couple more ef lenses to really utilise this method and since I’m still a beginner it’s a good hands on and cheap way to figure out what focal lengths are good for certain situations so whenever I upgrade to full frame I know what good lenses I’d wanna fork the money out for!
Good thinking! It is nice that you can take the EF lenses up, and use them on the RF mount in the future.
The easy answer is get both. You need both. And while you are on it also buy a tele-converter. (However it might be a bit complicated to get a Metabones EF-M / EF speedbooster ... since they ship from HongKong) and no shop has them on the shelf. Some has the viltrox... but that´s comes with visibly inferior image quality in regards of sharpness.
I have a m50 mark 2 and with the speedbooster and a low light lens what higher priced cameras would it be equivalent to when decked out? Also a few years down the road I want to upgrade to a 4k/30fps full frame low light camera what would be the best priced camera? Im gonna get used so the cameras around now will be what im getting in a few years to save money.
I have the speed booster & it’s def harder to focus and needs to be on a tripod almost all the time cause any movement even the tiniest will make the image blurry, if anybody has any suggestions I’m open to trying some out
This is likely just the shallow area that becomes in focus with the speed booster. From a movement perspective, looking at camera shake, the speed booster allows you to achieve higher shutter speeds, so should be even less prone to camera movement than the adapter.
Can you please suggest a speed booster to convert from nikon f to sony e apsc.
Why would I do buy a speed booster? Because of the crop factor. Easy to answer. IF I want to use a 11 to lets say 24 mm prime lens, I have no other option. Sadly. Especially not with a good f-stop and auto focus. I wish there would be lenses that have ultra wide angles to counter the crop factor. But there aren't.
Your comparison of 600% crop with or without speedbooster is not fair: since the speed booster gives a larger angle of view, fewer photosites are involved in the image of the head of the fish than without speedbooster. So you compare 2 images with a different number of pixels, that's why the head looks blurier with speedbooster !
I moved the camera to compensate. So the framing is the same, as is the resolution used.
Great video Sir! Just bought a viltrox adpter for my canon m50 mark2, can i use my friend nikon d90 kit lens using this adapter? Thank u very much!
thank you - i have a Blackmagic with 25mm lens but the crop factor is too much...i would like a Wider field of view ...hope the booster will help me - nice video thanks for making it...
I have a canon t7i and a kit lens and a canon 50mm 1.8 lens which one is better to film beauty makeup videos and would I need an adapter or a speed booster?
Will the Viltrox Speed Booster work for the Canon M50 with a Laowa 9mm f/2.8 manual focus lens for Canon ef-m mount? I'm trying to get more light in and wider 4k shooting real estate. Thx!
Ok this makes total sense. You are the best! Thank you!
Hello 👋 ! So I have a m50 ii , I was thinking to buy a tamron 24-70 f2.8 g2 , the question its what you recommend : speed booster or adapter ? Thank you 🙏
Using lenses for burning insects?? Dude got some issues
Is this lense compatible Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 IS Macro STM
For canon m50 mark ii, if you have an adapter?
I bought the Viltrox Speed Booster to use with my Helios 44-2 and it is now my favorite combo for my M50. Using it 90% of the time.
how is it still going after 3 months, man? have you had some trouble with auto focus while filmmaking?
@@wandersonxavier829 I do mostly photography, and when I'm using the Speed Booster I only use vintage lenses without any AF.
Finally the video I was looking for. Thanks for taking the time to put this together for us. Thumbs up 👍🏼
So Good to hear! Thanks!
I have both, find myself using the regular adapter the most 😊
Yes, I think I use the adapter more too.
wait! I can still use ef-m to ef-m+efs lenses? Am I getting that correct? or do I need to buy multiple?
help.
Hello, is this Viltrox adaptor compatible with Tamron lenses? 🤔🤔
Yupp
is it work on a sigma 16 mm lens for canon m50 mark ii
After buying virtually every EF-M lens focal length available and taking them traveling with me I've decided I just need a 15-45 mm (24-70 FF equiv) but fast. The kit lens is not fast enough. My 22mm pancake is nice but not wide enough on my M6 II. Now I'm looking at EF lenses and using the speedbooster to try to get me into the focal length that I need. The problem is lenses with that range that are fast are already very large and heavy and then adding the speedbooster makes them uncomfortable. Oh, how I wish Canon's 24mm was an EF and not an EF-S lens.
Anyone have any suggestions on a 24-70mm FF equiv fast lens for EF-M either using an adapter or speedbooster? I find myself leaving my 22mm f/2, 32mm F/1.4 and 56mm f/1.4 in the hotel when traveling. There are wider zooms but slooowww. There are wide fast primes but they're primes.
I have had the same experience, have not really done the research, but I can empathise with your position. I see people talk about the Tokina 11-16 f2.8 as an option, seems to have a cult following. Seems like an off focal range to me. The issues with fast zoom is going to be the size. There are rumours of Sigma offering an APS-C 18-50 F2.8, which would be prefect.
@@markwiemels When I started taking photos again I really didn't know what focal range I'd need but now it's very clear. I need to get far enough away from buildings which at 22 I can't. I have the 15-45mm EF-M, the 18-55 EF-M and the 18-150mm EF-M lenses. I use the 18-150 mostly. It's faster than the 15-45 and covers a lot of focal length. Still not ideal though.
Before Canon decided to abandon EF-M it was rumored that they were going to make a 15mm f/2, 18-45mm f/2.8-4, 52mm f/2, 62mm macro f/4, 100-300mm f/5.6-8. At the time I would have bought four of them. Now I have the Sigma 56mm but I'd still buy 3 of those lenses if they released them. The 18-45 isn't as fast as I'd want but is quicker than the kit lenses. The 15mm f/2 would undoubtedly be smaller than Sigma's 15mm f/1.4 so I'd buy that too.
Hi Mark, I had to revisit this video, after some time, as I was unsure of which way to go the first time around. Having taken the time to review the options, and rethink about what I was looking for, it's the adapter I want, not the speed booster. I am not looking to change my M50 ii anytime soon but wanted to consider the EF & EF-S lenses for their quality. Too bad Canon abandioned us M series owners. Lesson learned Canon. I'll be buying used. Thanks for your info and clear presentation.
I flipped back and forth on my opinion. I had the booster and then sold it. Then bought it again because I missed the versatility of it. Then sold my M50 with the booster. My final opinion was I liked having it. I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone that's looking for versatility with the lenses that they have. It's another tool to add to your kit.
Yeah, that's kinda where I am at too. Not perfect for everything, but well worth having.
For beginners and budget user. Get both! Imagine that you get a cheap lens with F4.0, you can get aperture F2.8! For cheap!
Hi I just bought the sigma lens you linked for m50 but it seems like I may need an adapter as this one is for Sony. Which adapter would that be?
Which lens did you buy? I will check the link, sometimes Amazon changes things. You can't adapt Sony to Canon
@@markwiemels The 16mm 1.4 you have linked goes to Sony. Ok good to know I’ll have to return that one thank you for getting back to me
What is the question in the video even supposed to mean? If you wanna buy full frame glass, then you use the speecbooster. If you wanna use APSC glass then use the adapter. That's what they're designed for. Am i missing something?
Yes, you can use FF glass with or without the speed booster. The speed booster gives you a wider field of view and more light, at the sacrifice of image quality and detail. So that is the choice, and trade-off, that is being made.
@@markwiemels Right, but if you'd plan on using a FF lens with the adapter instead of a speedbooster then you might as well get the apsc equivalent of that lens instead. It's gonna be cheaper and smaller. So getting FF lenses to then just put them onto an adapter seems counter intuitive to me.
@@toastbrot97 That's not an unreasonable way to think about it, but it's not quite as simple as that. i.e. the very popular EF 50mm f1.8 does not really have a comparable APS-C lens at the a same price point. So it's not quite a 1:1 thing. None of the FF options will have an exact APS-C match, even though some may be close enough. Plus the speed booster on f1.8 FF gets you a f1.2 equivalent on APS-C, but with some sacrifices.
Thank you for this explanation ❤ I used a 50mm lens with the adapter on my Canon M50 Mark II last night for some astrophotography and was so confused as to why the image appeared so zoomed in / cropped. I think I understand why now after watching your video. So thank you!
Thank you so much for this informative video!! Answered all my exact questions I had.
Maybe a stupid question, is there a speed booster that works with the eos rebel T5 / eos 1200D ?
Do they make a speed booster for the Canon EOS R7 and R10?
I was just thinking about this I don't have any EF or EFS lenses but I may eventually move to a full frame camera and would invest in those lenses. I plan on sticking with Canon. I have a friend that is a professional and has lots of Canon lenses I could borrow so I may get both starting with the regular.
Yes, if you plan to move up to a RF camera at some point, the EF lenses make a lot of sense,
Sounds like a reducer to me.
I know that video is a year old, but I think there is something misleading here. Yes, in mathematical terms, you are right, but in practicality, I don't see the advantage. I have both using Tamron 18-400mm on Canon M6 Mark II. The widest (18mm) with a speed booster, may give you a true full frame of 18mm, but by the time you finish cropping (Cause you see the edge of the booster in the frame) you end up with practical 29mm (On Canon APC-S) As to the 400mm side, you get true 400mm, but you lose the cropping factor that gives you 640mm with the adapter which you can simply achieve by zooming out. As for light, I actually get a much noisier image with the booster so I don't really see the point. Saying that "you get two different focal length is misleading if you really expect to get a full frame image.
That’s an aps-c lens, not full frame, that’s why you see the lens. The speed booster is for full frame lenses.
@@markwiemels After looking into it I realized that yes, you're right, but this is quite confusing since the mount is EF which is a full frame mount and not specified as EFS made for APS-C
@@ziv2liv Agree it's confusing, I think Sigma call it an EF lens for APS-C cameras. Where Canon would call it an EF-S lens.
I just received 2 adapters…ordered via Amazon yesterday….EF-M for FD and EF-M for EF/EF-S lenses. Still learning my M50 Mark II, though (bought it over a year ago). I got a Canon A-1 with 4 lenses and Rebel EOS T2 with one lens in a lot of cameras I won in a silent auction a couple of years ago. Decided to try out the 5 lenses.
I'm definitely a speed booster kind of guy. I love the video quality
yes, it's a pretty cool look.
Which one do you recommend for m50mii with a macro lens for dental photography purpose?
just buy both. I got my adapter today. Later I will buy speedboster
This solves some questions i had 😅 I have a m50 mk2 with a 24mm f2, 50mm f/1 and 70-200mm f2
Liked and subbed 👍 Just got an EF M-2 mount adapter but it's not compatible with my canon m50. Did I miss something? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
The names are confusing M2 might be the Sony to EF, or Panasonic to EF. You need the EF-M to EF.
Just got an R10. I'm using mostly for action sports indoors (i.e. basketball, volleyball) where I've found it difficult to get proper lighting. Would you suggest the booster for increased lighting? thanks and sub'd
Yes, that will help for sure. It's hard to know if the sacrifice in image detail will be an issue or not, you would really have to try it out to know.
After reading all of these comments I feel kinda stupid! Lol. I only use my canon m-50 for recording vids & taking pics for holidays. I have a wide angle lens & a bigger lens I bought as an international version. I bought my canon as an international camera, too, & love it. I got the white one. A lot of this info is foreign to me. Very good explanation of the speed booster, tho. Subscribed.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for going into such detail. Extremely useful stuff!
Thank you so much for this clear, concise explanation! Just ordered a speedbooster along with a 50MM lens for my M50. Very excited to try it out after watching this!
You are most welcome.
@@markwiemels Have you noticed that the auto focus is significantly slow with this set up? I love the quality while its in focus...but auto seems pretty unreliable as of right now. Im wondering if its something on my M-50s end, or if its the speed booster/50 MM on their own.
@@markwiemels I shoot video, auto focus is pretty important :(
@@PatrickCrawfordVideo I mostly use the speed booster when taking photos, so can’t really comment on the video side. It seems fine for photos.
I watched your last video, thank you so much for giving us your opinion and all of this information, this will be my first time using a "professional" camera after wanting one ever since graduating High School and your videos are in very helpful for me to understand the photography world. I wish you the best!
Melbourne B-roll! Wassup neighbour! X
Are there any budget 14-16mm lens that can be added to the viltrox speedbooster to give a nice full frame when recording in 4k on the m50 mark ii?
Not that I am aware of.

thank you so much.
I have an EF 75-300mm with Viltrox speed booster should I invest in the EF-M 55-200mm... Thoughts?
Only if you need the image stabilisation.
Hey, what adapter would i need for the Canon M50 Mark ii for the M42 lens and the ef-s lens ???
Eos-m to m42, and eos-m to ef.
Great video, but do you recommend me to buy the speedbooster and then buy 50 mm canon lens or do you recommend me to buy a Sigma 30 mm or viltrox 23 mm 1,4?
The image quality out of the 23mm and 30mm will be better. Have a look at my best prime lens video, it will help you choose the focal lengh. Be sure the watch the start of the video.
@@markwiemels can you please tell me the title of the video I should check from your channel? Thank you in advance UPDATE: I already found it and I am watching it.
Hello friend , can I ask you about my canon m50 mark 2 . I want to use it with Meike adapter Eos M to Eos ef without speedbooster (NO SPEEDBOOSTER ) + Meike 85mm f1.8 !
Problem: the problem is I got a mesege in the start , this message >Push and hold the lens switch in 🔼 direction and then rotate the lens to enable shooting<
Soo, the problem is , the Meike 85mm f1.8 it doesn’t have any botton for rotate . Please can you help me thank you !
Sorry, I have never seen that problem, I don't have a solution for you. Try googling it.
U need to go to the menu to enable shooting in the condition without attaching a lense. Once u do this, when u plug in the adapter, don't fully lock it and you will be good to go. If you have a speedbooster , after the firmware update on it you should be good to go with your Meike 85mm
Hello, i have a m50, and i'm planning to buy the 55-250 or 18-135 EF-S lense, should i buy the speed booster or adapter?
adapter, they wont work properly with the speed booster.
My guess is, that if you achieve the same reproduction size on the sensor, the bokeh wont be different, but the sharpness would be better without the speed booster.
I think the physics are that with the speed booster you can get closer to the subject, because of the wider field of view, and this is what gives you more blur… I think..
I recently read a comment (not on yours) that the Viltrox adaptor has a shiny black surface on the inside which bounces stray light on the sensor. I have and use both the VILTROX adaptor and booster and the interiors of both are matt and I've never experienced the light flash he described have you?
I have had this reflection issue with the genuine canon adapter, but not that Viltrox.
Why is the M5 always ignored whilst the lesser M50 always gets mentioned ?
Just marketing and popularity. No real reason beyond that. Canon did a terrible job of marketing the EF-M camera, and the M50 was the most popular of them.
I like your videos thank you for putting out some information on the Canon M50 I think it is a really solid camera that doesn't seem to get a lot of credit. Just one small critique of your videos of which I have watched two today. It appears that you are looking above the camera in the videos so instead of appearing to talk to us you are kind of looking over my head. Not trying to be negative because your videos look really good just trying to help.
Thanks for the tip, yeh, been trying to work in that.
I have the 50mm EF lens, but I also have the 10-18 EF-S and 55-250 EF-s lenses, Will these work on the speed adapter?
I'm not sure, as I don't have those lenses, but as I said in the video, the speed booster is designed to work with EF lenses, not EF-S, so it may not.
Great video and it explains a lot! But I do have one question and I would be happy if you could help me. I plan to buy 18-400mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC HLD which is EF lens but designed for crop sensor. Will speedbooster work with this lens or should I use the adapter? Thank you!
Adapter.
Hello sir... I own canon M50 mark 2..... I'm a chef and im learning food photography..... I'm a little confused between canon adaptor and viltrox speed booster... Please suggest me what wud be better for me....
Start with the adapter.
@@markwiemels thnx a lot sir ....
Hi, for canon m50 mark2, which is best buying efm lenses with high price or buying ef lenses with adapter in budget ?
It really depends on the lens, but I wouldn’t hesitate to buy more affordable EF lenses and use the adapter, you will get great results.
A lot of lenses are sharper in the center than in the periphery. An adapter will crop off the periphery effectively giving you a sharper image than on a full frame camera. An ideal adapter which introduces no distortion will preserve the peripheral distortion of the full frame lens. Real life lenses will of course introduce transmission effects.
Adapters don't modify the image all all. The smaller sensor just sees less of the image (a crop form the middle).
Does using the adapter create a zoom effect with an EF lens? If so how much?
no
So what does the speed booster do for ASP-C lenses? Is it only good for full frame lenses on the canon m50ii?
You will often seem bad vignetting (dark corner or image circle), but sometimes it works ok.
Hey Mark, I've seen a couple of your videos and i have to ask after watching this video. Does the speed booster/regular adapter have an impact on autofocus performance and optical performance I'm planning to buy an m50ii and pair it with the sigma 18-35 1.8 and 50-100 1.8. your thoughts?
Adapter has no negative impact, the speed booster does impact image quality, and can effect focus performance. The 18-35 is a crop lens, not designed to work with the speed booster.
Just got the sigma 18-35 and gonna get the adaptor for now. Great vid man tho
Great setup.
We need both because the speed booster does not support ef-s. I use the speed booster for the nifty fifty. It makes it act like f 1 .2 instead of f 1.8
Good point.
But is the straight viltrox adapter non-speed booster slower than the canon ef to eos m standar adapter?
No, the adapters don’t process anything, they are just wires going from one connection point to another. So they are identical in function.
Mark, does the adapter(not the speed booster since I need to work with EF-S lenses) fit on the camera when the smallrig cage is on the camera? It looks like the tripod portion of the adapter may interfere with the cage?
You can remove the tripod foot, and from memory the adapter will fit with the cage attached but that speed booster will not. I’m like 90% sure on that, but my brain has reached maximum capacity lately and seems to be dumping information, so I’m not completely certain.
