Metabones Canon EF - Fuji G T Smart Adapter

Metabones Canon EF - Fuji G T Smart Adapter | Use EF lenses on GFX

Use Canon EF lenses on a Fujifilm GFX camera body with the Metabones Canon EF - Fuji G T Smart Adapter. It connects the lens and camera interfaces, translating optical metadata so the adapter supports phase-detection autofocus (PDAF). Aperture is controlled from the camera, keeping that adjustment within the camera’s own controls. For a setup with a lens that doesn’t autofocus reliably, manual focus remains a sensible option: autofocus behaviour varies between lenses, and Metabones doesn’t promise the same result with every model. The adapter also records lens details for manual lenses, including lens name, focal length and maximum and minimum aperture, so that information can be saved in EXIF data. That’s useful when you want lens details associated with your images, even when focusing by hand. For a tripod-based setup, the adapter can be clamped directly or attached to a quick-release plate for compatible heads. It also reduces internal reflections, a useful detail in an optical connection between lens and camera. In short, this is a smart mount adapter for GFX owners working with Canon EF glass, with camera-controlled aperture, lens-data handling and a visible LED communication indicator rather than a simple mechanical connection.

Why it is useful

• Canon EF to Fujifilm GFX connection: The adapter provides the physical link for mounting Canon EF lenses on a GFX body. It’s a focused solution for using those lenses with that camera system.
• PDAF support: The adapter translates optical metadata between the lens and camera interfaces to support phase-detection autofocus. Autofocus operation depends on the lens, so performance isn’t uniform across every model.
• Manual focus remains an option: Metabones recommends manual focusing because autofocus doesn’t work with every lens. That matters when a particular lens doesn’t deliver dependable AF through the adapter.
• Camera-controlled aperture: Set the aperture using the camera’s controls rather than adjusting it on the adapter. Stepless aperture support is available with newer Canon lenses from 2009 onward, Tamron SP lenses from 2013 onward and Sigma lenses from 2016 onward.
• EXIF data for manual lenses: The adapter stores a manual lens’s name, focal length and maximum and minimum aperture. Those details can be recorded in the image’s EXIF data, keeping lens information with the file.
• LED communication indicator: A built-in LED shows communication status between the lens and camera. It gives you a visible status indication at the adapter.
• Reduced internal reflections: The adapter is specified to reduce internal reflections. This is a useful optical detail in a setup that places an adapter between the lens and camera.

Good to know

The adapter is black and supports two tripod-mounting approaches: clamp it directly, or attach it to a quick-release plate. Its plate compatibility includes heads from Arca Swiss, Markins and Photo Clam. Those options are handy when you’re switching between a tripod setup and a handheld one, or when your existing support uses one of those head systems.
