Metabones Canon EF to MFT T Smart Adapter

Metabones Canon EF to MFT T Smart Adapter

SKU: MB_EF-m43-BT2

Starting from firmware V1.7, autofocus is enabled on Panasonic camera bodies, subject to certain limitations. The Panasonic Micro Four Thirds camera bodies are capable of autofocusing fast (large maximum aperture) lenses accurately. Although first and foremost priority is accuracy, Metabones is able to make great strides in autofocus speed as well, which is significantly faster than a DSLR Four Thirds lens on a Panasonic Micro Four Thirds camera (with adapter).

Some improperly-made M42 screw mount adapters may short the electronic contacts of the Metabones Smart Adapter and cause damage to the Smart Adapter and/or camera body.

Focus confirmation "chips" such as Dandelion are incompatible.

Many manual focus lenses (e.g. OM 28/2.8, OM 50/1.8, Leica R 15/3.5) have rear protrusions (spikes, levers, other appendages) which would damage the housing of Smart Adapter. They need to be modified before they can be safely used on Smart Adapter. Check and make sure there are no rear protrusions from the adapter/lens combination before using on Smart Adapter. Scratches and damages caused by rear protrusions on Smart Adapter are not covered by warranty.
