I bought these to make a small and lightweight run and gun setup for my Sony FX9. I can’t stand using DSLR glass with no micro adjustments for the iris and I rarely shoot full frame. Also prefer a real focus range…I’m not a autofocus person. My normal setup is a Fuji 20-120mm but the minimum focus and weight has me looking for something more compact. Obviously I will have to switch lenses more often but these are so small and light. Build quality is great.

Really loving this lens particularly the lightweight. Have used Angenieux and Fuji lenses on a few features, and this lens cut right in with them. It's fast and lightweight and build quality is good as well. Definitely recommended.

In EF mount, will this lens work with an EF to MFT Metabones .71 Speedbooster?
Asked by: Brian
Once again, B&H staff answer erroneously. .71 Speedboosters are made to work with APSC/S35 AND FF lenses. Will somebody knowledgable please answer the question I posted? Thank you!
