Hey guys,

Is it not possible to use different lens adapters on top of the speed booster
so lets say,

4/3rds to nikon and then a nikon to canon EF to be able to start using the EF range.
Is there something I'm missing?

thanks

You could adapt lenses with a longer flange focal distance than Nikons 46.5mm (like the Leica R) but there are not many. Mounting an EF lens (FFD 44mm) to a Nikon mount would result in not being able to focus to infinity.

You would be able to use the MFT - EF speed booster (when released) with Nikon lenses tho. Using an adaptor same as you can on a standard Canon mount camera.
