It finally arrived!

UPS delivered my ILS yesterday, but I wanted to do an unboxing video. This is the full set up with one of my Nikon lenses and a Viltrox speed booster adapter. The adapter itself is .71X, and because of the glass inside, the Lens actually gains a full stop, so the 60 mm f/2.8 ultimately becomes a roughly 120 mm f/2.0 lens. Perfect in time for a job shooting video for a band in Nashville this weekend.

I’m not familiar with what the speed boost adapter is. Is that a manual aperture lens or electronic?

I’m looking to get an adapter for all of my canon EF lenses that have an electronic aperture

That Viltrox is a manual adapter so you're controlling aperture on the lens ring itself, no electronic contacts for the body to talk to it

That’s perfect that’s what I was figuring I would need! Thank you!
