Using the Metabones 0.58x Speed Booster on the BMPCC 4k | No Crop in Slow Motion 

Not obsolete information at all!!!!! Thank you so much for revealing a hidden gem of a secret which pretty much every other camera youtuber seems to have glossed over! :)

Wow!!! Thank you for making this video! its brilliant! Ive just got the bmpcc 4k (a few days ago) and I have the bmpcc OG with metabones speedbooster. Everything I've read so far suggested that it would not work and potentially damage the 4k. But thanks to your testing and video, i now have new options :)

Your footage is beautiful. Thanks for doing this video.

Nice experiment - thanks for sharing it!

Great tip, I have an old speedbooster building dust on my OG BMPCC, was excited to test it out on my BMPCC 4K in windowed mode. Goodbye Lens Turbo .71

So I uploaded this originally around Jan this year, but at the time I really didn't like the video at all, so I took it down within a couple of days. Like for everyone, it's been a very uncertain time & I went through a pretty severe depression for about 6 months this year. It was lots of different factors combined including COVID, but was definitely overdue generally. I just found I couldn't do any film work & obviously due to COVID most of it was canceled, but that wasn't the main factor. I felt no matter how hard I was applying myself my mind kept tripping me up. It was a really odd feeling having an intense passion and love to do something, but feeling completely debilitated when I went to do that same thing. I am incredibly lucky that in the UK I could access help through the NHS completely free of charge. Nothing will ever be perfect, but I am now feeling significantly better than what I was, my outlook and mental health are much stronger than ever before, which honestly is an incredible feeling! As my moods changed I watched this video back and saw it in a different light, I know that I would definitely approach it differently now, but I still think there's some useful information in the video for anyone looking to do the same setup. I have also now bought one of these 0.58X speed boosters, so any questions let me know and I can try and test it out my end! No Sharpening / Denoising has been applied to the clips - they have been graded and corrected but that's it. Also sorry about the varying audio quality, I had to amend some sections but I am a bit crap with audio & didn't match it too well!

Great experiment!

Useful! Thank you! 🙂

Thanks for this video!! I have a BMMCC and the metabones 0,58x and thinking about upgrade to BMPCC 4K and sell all, and now i,'m thinking about only sell te BMMCC and maintain the metabones ;)

Great!!! Thank you!!!

Very informative video 👏👏👏 btw have you tried this speedbooster with any 2x anamorphics yet? Very curious of what this this thing can do at 2.8k anamorphic mode. Thanks man got me subscribed

David I like your videos. I intend to purchase the Panasonic S5 and Panasonic gh5s and Panasonic s1

excellent review! congratulations, I was curious to watch the full video that you show at 3:24 ... where can I watch it?

excellent work! I'm wondering if the ve gnetting will disappear when any large image field lens mounted , such as for example 44x33 mm lens

How much percentage (%) do you have to ZOOM inside the frame , while using this adapter in 4K , so you can avoid vignetting ? Thank you for your truly enlightening video. It is a revelation for a Wedding Cinematographers' line of work. ❤❤❤❤

Thank you so much for this very very useful video! Now I'd like to know if you are using a full frame lens with the 0.58x speedbooster there is any vignetting? I mean whet you are using the full sensor not the super 16 crop. Please let us know!

Thank you for posting. I’m thinking of the 0.58x for my BMPCC4K for my vintage lenses to bring out their character (usually in the corners). How did the 0.58x work in C4K? How bad was any vignetting? Did it seem to be effected by different focal lengths or did you try that aspect that much? I might track down the 0.58x for the same reasons.. or maybe just the 0.64x. I have a Viltrox 0.71 for $100 and for $100 it’s great.. for my Lensbaby Twist 60, Velvet 85 etc it means I’m not using a telescope, just a telephoto.. but I would prefer to get it closer to a full frame crop factor to see the character in the corners.. Those and my other vintage lenses usually shoot around 2.8 to no more than 5.6. After 5.6 the character goes away...

I just got the delivered the 0.58xl with nikon mount for my bmpcc4k (by mistake) - still bit nervous to put it on....

Hi, so the .58x fit to blackmagic pocket cinema 4k without damage the sensor ? Do you have ever tried metabones for nikon also ?

Thanks! what did you use to record this video?

Hey, i have the .64 metabones cine version for bmpcc 4k. What would be the benefit getting the .58? I have a chance of getting one in my country for like 150euros but would i gain anything having a .64 already?

Hi, thanks for a really interesting video! Can I ask what lenses you were testing on? I've been using the BMPCC 4k with a Metabones .58 speed booster and have yet to encounter any issues with vignetting at 4K DCI!

Did you also tested image stabilized lenses and maybe full frame lenses in non cropped mode? I have one lying around:D

Awesome video! I’ve thought about this several times. I’m glad that you did it, I will definitely rent one too. What lenses did you use on this test?

There is a crop on full frame lenses in 4K using the 0.58x ?

Does anybody know if a MFT lens will fit on this speedbooster even though it's an EF mount?? Thanks. Great video by the way!

I have this speed booster. But i want to switch from BMPCC to GH5.. WILL IT FIT?!?

Any updates? How does it compare to the XL 0.64x?

I wonder how the .58 speedbooster compares to the .64 speedbooster. I am a bit confused too, as to the numbering of the speed boosters. Why is it the .64 provides more field of view and closer to full frame than the .71 but the .58 is lesser than the .71, can you help make sense of this for me ?

Are the lenses loose on your BMPCC 4K?

i"m using a hackintosh too XD

How is the vignetting when shooting in UHD and the 2.4 crop in 4k

Take care, mine doesn't fit. The metal mount is too tight so I cannot turn to click to mount it - so probably a mechanic will help me very carefully file away material from the lobes (locking pieces) until it fitted :(

hallo, im new film making, i use metabones Nikon - BMPCC 4K 0.58x, but on BRAW 4K DCI setting, the resulting image becomes a vignette, i use full frame like sigma 35mm 1.4, nikkor 85mm 1.4 etc but still vignette. Maybe you can help me, thanks so much

Have you tried to mount it on the GH5s?

0.58x Speed Booster SUPER16 works on gh5?? huh. Metabones says its impossible.

Dang, the prices on these have trippled assuming you can even find one.
