The highly sought‑after Metabones Speed Booster now supports classic Olympus OM lenses, offering a 0.71× field‑of‑view expansion and a full stop of additional light. This adapter is a game‑changer for photographers who wish to retain the wide‑angle and fast aperture characteristics of their legacy glass on modern mirrorless bodies.
Key benefits include:
- 0.71× magnification – a 1.4× wider view compared to a standard adapter.
- 1 stop extra light – a 0.5× drop in focal length, enabling brighter exposures.
- Seamless fit – designed to match the OM mount geometry for reliable operation.
While the $400 price tag reflects its premium engineering, the OM‑to‑M43 Speed Booster provides a practical bridge for photographers who still rely on their Olympus collection. By preserving wide‑angle coverage and high‑speed performance, it eliminates the need to replace aging lenses.
