Before you consider investing in a new lens for your Fujifilm GFX camera, consider the high-quality, durable, and innovative Canon EF Lens to Fuji G-Mount T 1.26 x Smart Expander. This compact and versatile device allows you to mount Canon EF lenses onto Fujifilm GFX camera bodies, eliminating the need for multiple lenses and expanding your photographic capabilities. The Smart Expander features a 1.26 x magnification factor, expertly matching the image circle of full-frame Canon EF lenses to the medium-format sensor of GFX series cameras. This ensures that the diagonal field-of-view (FOV) remains consistent, providing you with the same high-quality images you've come to expect from your Canon lenses.
The optical design of this lens adapter is comprised of five elements in three groups. It incorporates ultra-high index Lanthanum-based optical glass and one element made of fused silica. This results in exceptional performance, particularly with professional-grade f/ 2.8 zoom lenses. For instance, a 24-70mm f/ 2.8 lens transforms into a 30-88mm f/ 3.5 zoom, and a 70-200mm f/ 2.8 lens becomes an 88-252mm f/ 3.5 zoom. The Smart Expander also features Metabones' electronic integration, including phase-detection autofocus (PDAF), in-body image stabilization (IBIS), optical image stabilization (IS/OS/VC), and smooth iris.
This allows for seamless operation and superior image quality, regardless of the lens used. Metabones has a reputation for designing and manufacturing lens adapters that are recognized for their superior design and workmanship. The Canon EF Lens to Fuji G-Mount T 1.26 x Smart Expander is no exception. It features precision-machined brass with chromium plating on both the camera-body and lens sides, ensuring smooth mounting, an attractive appearance, and long-lasting durability. The lens side of the adapter features a robust leaf-spring structure, strengthening the adapter-lens connection and ensuring a tight fit.
This reduces wear and prevents focus errors and optical alignment issues. With its matte-black treatment to minimize internal reflection, this adapter maintains the maximum optical quality possible with your lens. In summary, the Canon EF Lens to Fuji G-Mount T 1.26 x Smart Expander is a versatile and high-quality tool that allows photographers to use their existing Canon EF lenses with Fujifilm GFX cameras, providing greater flexibility and compatibility in their photography.
