Lens Compatibility Chart
| Fast AF on all E-mount cameras. Max 10fps AF-C with A9 (Green Mode) and A7III /A7R IV (Advanced Mode) | Phase-detect AF on A9, A7III, A7RII to A7RIV, A7II, A6500, A6400, A6300 and A6100 only. On other cameras, may not be able to contrast-detect AF accurately if at all. Max 3fps with A7III. |

Canon EF8-15mm f/4L USM Fisheye* |
Canon EF24-70mm f/2.8L USM (Mark I) |
| Phase-detect AF on A9, A7RIV, A7III, A7RIII, A7RII, A7II, A6500, A6400 and A6300. Not known if other cameras autofocus satisfactorily using contrast-detection, and it is not known if the maximum AF-C drive speed of 10fps with A7III & A7RIV can be achieved or not. | Manual focus only |

Canon CN-E 18-80mm T4.4 COMPACT-SERVO EF (note 3) |
Samyang 35/1.4 |
| Not supported | |

Lenses not listed above have not been tested but will most likely work on A9, A7RIV, A7III, A7RIII, A7RII, A7, A6600 A6500, A6400, A6300 and A6100 using phase detection autofocus. They may or may not autofocus satisfactorily on other cameras using contrast-detection autofocus. It is not known if the maximum AF-C drive speed of 10fps with A7III & A7RIV can be achieved or not.
Note 1: Note colour dot next to the words "Made in Japan" on the housing. Blue dot, which is the latest version, is preferred. May have compatibility issues when Kenko is used with certain lenses and/or stacked on top of another teleconverter. Stacking not supported except if both are the blue dot version.
Note 2: Cannot be used due to the unusually high current requirement.
Note 3: Use of Canon Compact-Servo Cinema lenses such as CN-E 18-80mm T4.4 for still photography is not supported. (Functional, but slower than lenses designed for still photography.)

Why Metabones®?
Since its inception, Metabones has been designing and manufacturing lens adapters recognized among professionals and enthusiasts as leaders in design and workmanship.
Contrary to the popular trend of other factories using an aluminum ring painted black on the camera-body-side, we instead take no short-cut but use precision-machined brass with chromium plating on both the camera-body and the lens sides of our adapters, in order to ensure smooth mounting, great appearance, and durability. The lens side of the adapter features a strong leaf-spring structure, strengthening the adapter-lens connection and ensuring tightness of the lens in order to reduce wear and prevent focus errors and optical alignment issues from appearing.
Metabones uses matte-black treatment to keep internal reflection to a minimum in order to maintain the maximum optical quality possible with the lens.
All Metabones Adapters follow this tradition of uncompromising precision, robust build quality and outstanding finish. Our new Smart AdapterTM series of products add industry-leading electronic interfacing technology from Canada, with true electronic control of the lens' aperture directly from the camera body.
Features
- Both camera-side and lens-side of the adapter are made of brass, precision-machined and plated with chromium.
- Satin surface finish - just like your OEM lens and camera mounts.
- Precise fit and solid connection - lens has no play, gap or wiggling when mounted on adapter and no adjustments are required to fit your lens.
- Designed to reach infinity focus while maintaining the correct registration distance required to maintain optical quality of CRC lenses or lenses with floating elements.
Our Smart AdapterTM series adapters have the following additional features
- True electronic integration of aperture diaphragm - let camera automatically choose aperture in P or S exposure modes, or dial in yourself on the camera body in A or M modes.
- EXIF data such as lens identification, focal length and aperture.
