Like the revolutionary original Metabones Speed Booster announced in January 2013, the Metabones Minolta MD to X-mount Speed Booster ULTRA 0.71 (Black Matt) MB_SPMD-X-BM3 has a magnification of 0.71x, and so it effectively reduces the crop factor of mirrorless cameras with crop-sized sensors, such as Fuji X-mount cameras, from 1.5x to 1.07x. However, the new ULTRA design makes very effective use of exotic materials at the furthest limit of glassmaking technology, and as a result is well corrected for use with virtually all full-frame SLR lenses regardless of exit pupil distance.
The Speed Booster ULTRA performs extremely well with professional-grade f/2.8 zoom lenses. Similarly, high-speed fixed focal length lenses such as a 50mm f/1.2 will be transformed into a 35.5mm f/0.9 lens with excellent contrast and resolution from the center all the way to the edges of the image.
