Metabones makes a smart adapter that should work very well. But always check the Metabones site to see if the lens has been identified and works well on their adapter.

Posted: Wed Jan 09, 2019 3:32 pmI've also got a problem with this lens. I've got the Viltrox MFT-EF Adapter (the M1 version without speedboosting) for my Pocket 4k and I am not able to use autofocus or the stabilization on the lens (both activated). I updated camera and adapter, but the problem remains. Setting the aperture works perfectly, though. Is there something I can do or is this combination just not working?
