The Speed Booster condenses light from the lens and projects it onto the  smaller sensor allowing the sensor to utilize all of the lens' light and effectively produce a full-frame angle of view with an  MFT sensor. A corresponding  increase  in the maximum aperture of  one f\/stop makes the lens more effective in low-light situations and able to create a shallow depth of field.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eMetabones  Speed Boosters  are quality made, using precision-machined brass with chromium plating on both the camera-body and the lens sides of the  booster in order to ensure smooth mounting, quality aesthetic, and durability.
