Nikon-G/F to Micro-4/3 mount Speed Booster adapter is designed exclusively for the Blackmagic Cinema Camera (BMCC) with an MFT mount. The 0.64x Speed Booster reduces the full-frame crop factor of the BMCC from 2.39x to 1.53x, thus effectively transforming it into a Super-35 format cine camera!

Nikon-G/F to Micro-4/3 mount Speed Booster adapter is designed exclusively for the Blackmagic Cinema Camera (BMCC) with an MFT mount. The 0.64x Speed Booster reduces the full-frame crop factor of the BMCC from 2.39x to 1.53x, thus effectively transforming it into a Super-35 format cine camera! In addition, the speed of any attached lens is increased by 1-1/3 stops, with a maximum output aperture of f/0.80. For example, a 50mm f/1.2 becomes a 32mm f/0.80, and Sigma's 18-35mm f/1.8 will become an 11.5-22.5mm f/1.1.
Advanced Optical Design
The Speed Booster uses an advanced 6-element optical design incorporating ultra-high index glass to achieve extraordinary optical performance at record-breaking apertures. In addition to increasing lens speed and field of view, the new Speed Booster significantly increases the lenses MTF (Modulation Transfer Function). There is a dramatic performance enhancement near the center of the image, but there is also a moderate performance improvement in the outer parts of the image as well.
Compatible with Nikon FX and DX Lenses
It can be used with FX and DX lenses, including DX lenses with fixed lens hoods (e. g. Nikon 10.5mm/2.8 Fisheye or Sigma 8-16mm/4.5-5.6 Ultra-wide Zoom). Using the 0.64x Speed Booster on BMCC, the original FOV of DX lenses is fully restored; a 180° fisheye remains a 180° fisheye!
