Hi Richard. Excellent video as usual with plenty of good information. I came upon this video because I'm considering to buy the Viltrox EF to MFT adapter along with a Tamron lens (EF mount) for my G9. I reckon the appeal of such adapters is to leverage existing ownership of lenses. In my case, I'm looking for a 3rd party lens solution (in this instance, Tamron) where MFT lenses fall short. I have a question and wonder if you might know the answer. As I understand it, lens geometric distortion (GD) is corrected by the Lumix camera (and perhaps augmented by the lens). For JPG and recorded video, GD correction has been applied. I shoot photos in RAW, so I do the GD correction in post editing software. For an adapted lens scenario, such as Viltrox + Tamron, how is GD correction handled for recorded video? Knowledge about focal length and other lens characteristics are needed for GD correction. Is it handled by the Viltrox firmware? Is it handled correctly when changing focal length of a zoom lens during video recording? For a completely native lens scenario, I take for granted it's all handled correctly for video recording. Now that I'm considering an adapted lens situation, it especially makes me wonder. Thanks for any knowledge you can provide.
@TheRealRichardWong3 жыл бұрын
Hi David, I suspect there is no geometric distortion correction at all when you are using adaptor like this Viltrox. You'll most likely have to apply the correction manually in postprocessing unfortunately.

Thanks for a very complete review! However, it is not clear to me if with AI and AIS objectives the adapter will automatically keep the diaphragm fully open during focusing and close it to the preset value during exposure. This should be technically possible, I think, as the adapter has the motor, and would make AI and AIS objectives a lot easier to focus in everyday use. (At least in principle, even shutter priority auto-exposure could be supported with these objectives.)
@TheRealRichardWong3 жыл бұрын
With a AI/AIS lens, the aperture is keep fully open ALL THE TIME with this adaptor, even when you take photo. The adaptor/camera is not aware of the aperture setting with the old AI/AIS lens.

Hi Richard, When mounting a ff lens on a m43 body, only the field of view is reduced, not the depth of field, right ? Ex: 50mm becomes 100mm. So, if i want to have the same field of view and depth of field when shooting a ff lens on a m43 camera body, i can just take a few steps back until i get the same frame. My concern is that the depth of field is also reduced due to crop factor, and i cannot get the same background blur, even though i already took a few steps back to get the same frame. Ex: f1.2 becomes f2.4. Please help to advise. Thanks very much.
@TheRealRichardWong4 жыл бұрын
Hi Nam (is that how I should call you sorry i made a mistake) I guess you raised a pretty interesting question, and it's hard to answer because it really depends on how you look at it. Strictly technical speaking using a FF lens on m43 body does not change the focal length, or aperture or DOF. but because the camera will now only capture the center part of the image, it means: 1. the equivalent focal length is increased (by a factor of 2) 2. the light gathering power is same, unchanged. so exposure settings is not changed. 3. However, since the field of view is more narrow, you would need to step back a lot more to cover the same scene, or use a wider lens if you want to shoot at same place and have same composition. What it means is your equivalent DOF is also doubled i.e. a FF 50mm f/1.4 lens on a m43 will be equivalent to a 100mm f/2.8 lens now in terms of DOF and FOV. (even if you are still shooting at f/1.4) to get the same kind of FOV. Hope it makes sense. If not, feel free to ask more! :)

@@TheRealRichardWong Thanks for the reply, and you got my name correct, it is Nam :). Understood point number 1 and number 2. Continue on point number 3. Now that i don't have the wider lens to shoot from the same position, i am still taking picture with my m43 and 50mm f1.4 ff lens combo (which is equivalent to 100mm f2.8), i already took quite a few steps back from, let's say the A spot to the B spot, because i want to have the same composition/cover the same scene. Does this produce the same amount of background blur as when shooting a ff body with that very same 50mm f1.4 ff lens at the initial A spot ? I only own a m43 body and yet to have a ff body to do this experiment, so it would be super helpful if you could let me know the result of aforementioned shooting scenarios (the amount of background blur), thus giving me more ideas on future camera/lens purchase decisions. Best regards.

Hi Nam, sorry KZfaq is terrible in notifying me when people reply to a reply. Only just saw your reply. It's quite hard to explain it without using photos or videos, but short answer is you can get the same look with the same lens but used on a m43 vs FF body. Composition, field of view, depth of view all changes in different way when you try to adjust one to match one.

@@MyFighter2000 The Two Nikon AF D lenses wouldn't work because as mentioned at 10:30 this adaptor only works with the newer lenses with AFS motor. The Sigma 85 1.4 (is that the ART version?) should work though. I haven't test that lens, but I have tested with the Signa 50 1.4 ART and that works very well.

Sigma 85mm f 1.4 not a art and have a build in hsm motor. This 3 are my top portrait lenses for portrait and all does not work, to bad i was so happy to order this adapter . I have much more other Nikon lenses and the Tamron 28-70 f2.8 is hunting and hunting and never find a focus point. What lenses - model you are tested and work?

Nikon AFS 28 1.8G Nikon AFS 35mm f/1.4G Nikon AFS 70-200 f/2.8G (the very old first version) Nikon AFS 60mm f/2.8G Macro and some other Nikon AFS lenses.

@TheRealRichardWong Жыл бұрын
If you "AF" is the old style autofocus motor that requires body AF motor, then it wouldn't work. All DX lenses should work as they use the newer AF-S or AF-P style autofocus mechanism

Your autofocus test is not so clever. Did you set focus + shot mode to make it impossible to see because of flashing screen ? You do it as fast as possible to not to see anything at all ? Do you think the speed of focusing is everything what matters, accuracy, stability, smoothness does not matter. Hmmmm, not so pro.
