Overview
The Vello Accelerator Lens Adapter is for attaching Canon EF lenses to Micro Four Thirds cameras. It allows a wider field of view by magnifying the angle of view by 0.71×, and it provides an extra stop of light without decreasing image quality. This is a great advantage when using Canon EF lenses with the widely accepted Micro Four Thirds format. This Vello Accelerator adapter affords additional benefits, such as maintaining autoexposure and autofocus with most Canon lenses. Electrical contacts allow the lens and camera to communicate with each other for proper focus and exposure settings. A near-silent aperture toggle (Panasonic only), which is ideal for quietly selecting the f-stop during video recording, and a USB port for firmware updates. It has four elements in four groups to maintain image quality. And the detachable tripod foot will work with most 1/4-20 mounts as well as Arca-type head assemblies.
Features
Canon EF Lenses on Micro Four Thirds Cameras
Keep your old lenses and use them on your new Micro Four Thirds camera. The Vello LAG-MFT-CEF Accelerator Lens Adapter allows you to attach Canon EF lenses, with or without image stabilization, to Micro Four Thirds cameras. So, if you have old Canon EF lenses and have switched to the Micro Four Thirds format, you can now use a greater variety of lenses and expand your creativity.
Wider Field of View
The Accelerator offers a wider field of view with Canon lenses that are meant for full-frame cameras. For example, mounting a Canon full frame 50mm f/1.4 lens to a Micro Four Thirds sensor will usually give you a 100mm angle of view. By adding the Accelerator, you magnify the angle of view by 0.71× effectively producing a focal length of 71mm. Can you imagine how many more lenses you can use on your Micro Four Thirds camera?
Increases the Maximum Aperture by 1 Stop
Using the Accelerator lens adapter increases the maximum aperture by 1 f-stop, without decreasing image quality. This enhances your low-light capability, because the adapter redirects the available light through the optics and makes an f/1.4 transmit the same amount of light as an f/1.0.
Aperture Control (Panasonic Only)
The aperture control toggle allows you to quietly open and close the aperture without clicking a camera dial or rotating a lens ring. Since it minimizes camera vibrations and noise, you can use it to change the aperture during video recording.
Autoexposure and Autofocus
The LAG-MFT-CEF Accelerator Lens Adapter maintains autoexposure and autofocus with most Canon EF/EF-S lenses. Settings and focus can be controlled from the camera automatically.
Four Elements in Four Groups
Some lens adapters decrease photo integrity. This adapter offers four elements in four groups to enhance optical performance and maintain image quality.
Metal Construction
Excessively attaching and detaching lenses can cause untimely wear and tear. The adapter features metal construction for enhanced long-term durability.
Internal Matte Coating
Internal reflections can add artifacts that look like flaring, which can ruin your images. This adapter has a matte-finish coating to reduce internal reflections and maintain the integrity of the picture.
Removable Tripod Foot
The removable tripod foot has a standard 1/4-20 socket and is compatible with Arca-type heads. You can mount the lens adapter to a tripod without causing unnecessary stress to the lens and camera connections.
USB Port
A USB port allows for future updates to the adapter’s firmware improving, performance and handling.
