Metabones – Speed Booster’s 10th Anniversary

By Louis Ferreira | Published: January 3, 2024


Petersburg, VA, USA, January 14, 2023 – Caldwell Photographic and Metabones® will celebrate Speed Booster®’s 10th anniversary on January 14, 2023, with a 20% discount on all Speed Boosters, limited to the first 500 units only.

Unsurpassed Optical Quality
Speed Booster® by Caldwell Photographic is the original, award-winning optics that make lenses faster(1), wider and sharper. The original Speed Booster has been superseded by Speed Booster ULTRA in September 2014, incorporating ultra-high index tantalum-based optical glass to achieve extraordinary optical performance with improved corner sharpness, less distortion and reduced vignetting. The plenitude of imitators attests to the significance of this new invention, but even after 10 years the genuine Speed Booster remains unsurpassed in optical quality. The difference is the most pronounced when a lens with a large maximum aperture (e.g. f/1.2 or f/1.4) is used. Read More »

The Fujinon GF30mm f/5.6 T/S and GF110mm f/5.6 T/S Macro have had a rocky launch with some Fujifilm GFX Owners Group members reporting that their preorders were canceled. Now Fujifilm is reporting the resumption of deliveries in Japan as of December 26th so it might be a good time to reestablish a preorder if your order was previously canceled due to manufacturing shortages.
