This adapter allows photographers and videographers to effortlessly switch between a clear-glass filter and an eND filter with just one click, ensuring quick adaptability to changing lighting conditions while keeping your equipment dust-free. The Metabones Smart Adapter features an electronically variable ND filter, providing a range from 2 to 7 stops (ND4 to ND128) of exposure adjustment in precise 1/3 stop increments.
This eliminates the need for additional ND glass on the front of your lens, maintaining image quality and convenience. Designed with videographers in mind, this adapter supports cinema lenses and offers smooth iris transitions, enhancing your creative control. Compatibility is key, and the Metabones adapter supports both in-body and optical image stabilization (IBIS, IS, OS, and VC), ensuring optimal performance regardless of your camera or lens choice. The adapter is powered directly by the camera body, eliminating the need for external power sources. It also supports fast autofocus, including phase-detection AF on select Sony models like the A9, A7RIII, and A7III, and offers continuous AF-C tracking at up to 10fps.
For those using manual lenses, the adapter can store EXIF data, including lens name, focal length, and aperture settings, for up to two lenses. The custom function button, known as the Focus Hold button, is assignable to over 50 functions, such as Aperture Preview and Eye-AF, providing versatility and ease of use. Constructed with precision, the adapter features a patented positive-lock EF lens mount, ensuring a secure fit for both EF and EF-S lenses. Its robust aluminum alloy and brass construction with chromium plating offer durability, while a rubber gasket protects the E-mount connection from dust and moisture.
The Metabones adapter also includes an OLED panel that displays operation modes and filter status, along with a multi-function control wheel for assignable functions like ISO, shutter speed, or aperture control. With support for Sony E-mount teleconverters and Cinema EOS lenses, this adapter is a versatile tool for any professional's kit.
Please note some limitations: autofocus performance may vary depending on the lens and camera model, and certain features like continuous video AF are functional in advanced modes only. Additionally, some EF-mount lenses may produce audible noises during operation, which can be mitigated by using an external microphone. Whether you're capturing stunning stills or dynamic video, the Metabones Canon EF Lens to Sony E T CINE eND Smart Adapter is designed to enhance your creative capabilities, offering unparalleled flexibility and performance.
