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.

@baldeagle242 9 ай бұрын

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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).

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.

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?

@markwiemels 2 жыл бұрын

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.

@barbaranostrand4214 Жыл бұрын

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.

@markwiemels Жыл бұрын

Adapters don't modify the image all all. The smaller sensor just sees less of the image (a crop form the middle).

So what does the speed booster do for ASP-C lenses? Is it only good for full frame lenses on the canon m50ii?

@markwiemels 2 жыл бұрын

You will often seem bad vignetting (dark corner or image circle), but sometimes it works ok.

I have the m6ii and have become interested shooting longer range. What do you think of using an adapter for an ef 70-200? Is there ever going to be a possibility of a faster lens than the canon ef-m 55-200?

@markwiemels 2 жыл бұрын

70-200 is the way to go, its unlikely there will ever be a faster lens.

It seems that comments do not have a time line. As of 10-2023 I got a 70-300mm lens with f4.5-5.6 with a 67mm filter using a canon adapter, as compared to the 55-200mm lens with a f4.5-6.3 that is native to the Canon EF-M camera line which I have used on my EOS M6 Mark II and EOS M50 @@markwiemels

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.

@markwiemels Жыл бұрын

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 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

@markwiemels 2 жыл бұрын

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.

I personally only use the speed booster with the canon 50mm 1.8, and that’s it. I think it’s great honestly and I can’t tell a difference in image quality. I do have both adapters though, both from Viltrox. I use the regular adapter with my Sigma 18-35mm!

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?

@markwiemels 2 жыл бұрын

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.

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.
