I'm new for Blackmagic design world. I'm a photographer and I’m interested to start shooting video too. I've just purchased a BM micro cinema camera. As a photographer I have a huge Nikon lenses roster and I wish to start with them. In particular I’ve two early ‘80s prime lenses (28mm and 50mm) with focus and aperture controls that are really small and fast. My first question is about an adapter to fit my Nikon lenses to MFT mount. With the micro camera there is no autofocus but two buttons for iris control; do I lose that iris control using a normal adapter instead of a speedbooster one? I found F to MFT adapter and G to MFT adapter, are the two similar for my purpose or do I need one of each in particular? I’m trying to understand speedbooster function and I visited Metabones website looking for an adapter to my micro camera, but there is only certified adapter for Cinema Camera and Pocket. Which one can fit on micro cinema camera? Other question. i’ve notice when shooting with high ISO outdoor in the sunlight ND filter is a must to have, so my question is: from the moment I use a simple adapter that subtract lot of light why do I need a speedbooster and an ND filter more?
Thank you for your patience reading and in advance for your answer

I had a pocket and the metabones worked with my old Nikon AIS lenses + Sigma Art Nikon mount.
If you had the old AIS, you get both iris controls working but you'll have set one as the primary one.
