Looking at the product pages on Metabones' site, this note is interesting:

I don't know if the standard speed boosters can be powered by micro usb - I'd find that out before considering one if you have a BMCC 2.5k and want to use electronic EF lenses.

Hi I don’t need electronic option since my lenses are vintage 

Can any m43 speedboster fit on black magic cinema 2.5k or I have to look for specific one for my bmcc2.5 k

The Metabones micro43-EF Speedbooster product pages have info on certain types/models of manual focus lenses which are not compatible due to having rear protrusions which could damage the Speedbooster e.g.:

General m43-EF Speedboosters:

https://www.metabones.com/products/details/MB_SPEF-m43-BT3

https://www.metabones.com/products/details/MB_SPEF-M43-BT4

BM-only m43-EF Speedboosters:

https://www.metabones.com/products/details/MB_SPEF-m43-BT8

https://www.metabones.com/products/details/MB_SPEF-M43-BT9

(scroll down to the 'Manual Focus Lens Compatibility' section near the bottom of the page)

Yashica is not on the list.

  

I did some digging and I found this article using xl speedboster EF to m43 with adapter

Here’s a 2021 Update: You don’t have to do this for modern speedboosters like ULTRA and XL, mine fitted perfectly on the viltrox EF to MFT with cheap ebay CY adapter (Except I had to turn the glass of speedbooster to fix infinity focus) but that’s a seperate issue. 

On the Metabones some lenses might scratch the velvet side only slightly so maybe if you don’t want that you can trim the pins just slightly but not the whole way using a professional or at home with metal cutting plier. 

I think author uses old gen speedboosters since it’s 2016 but I also read this post while my lens is arriving by post and I panicked a lot and this post made me panic even more having to do this to a rare lens.

Can I use adapter in front of speedboster since I can’t find a specific one for my camera. I have old BMCC 2.5k m43 but can’t find specific one for my yashica mount can I just purchase EF to M43 camera mount then use EF to yashica adapter is this recommended or big NO

Thanks

If you went EF mount route, I would've recommended the Magic Booster by LucAdapter.

In my opinion its a cleaner application...

I think he is only applying an OLPF filter here not the actual focal reducer, but same way to apply it:

 

Won’t work for me my is M43

You can adapt various mounts to EF, such as Pentax, Nikon F, M42 and Yashica Contax. The latter youn cannot adapt to Nikon as the flange distance is larger. Nikon F has one of the largest if not the largest flange distance of any 135 film cameras. You can adapt Nikon lenses to EF but not the other way around. See flange distance on wikipedia as it lists the different mounts and flange distances. The you can check if adapters for different combinations of mounts are available.

Thank you for the info so basically metabons speedboster EF I can use my yashica lenses with adapter ?

Also found this one N/F Nikon to BMCC for 100 dollars but who knows if it will work with adapter

The Bmcc booster is specifically suited to the sensor. Printed letters on the shell are indeed bmcc. There is another 0.64 booster without this specific bmcc lettering for the Lumix GH line besides a similar 0.71 model. Contax to EF adapter and you are set. Had been using ef to contax. Just test out some of these very affordable adapters. How have you been using your Yashica ML lenses, with an ef to mft adapter?

I see I believe I just bought non specific MFT to CY yashica speed buster like one in the image for black magic pocket then I just used it in my BMCC 2.5k when I bough. I found some images  of my sled buster I don’t see any BMCC markings

You mentioned I can buy  Canon EF Lens to BMCC Speed Booster and just sue adapter between my yashica and speedboster ?  
 

Thanks for you help

It's the 0.64 version, specifically built for the Bmcc. It has it printed on top of the plastic shell. Check out the official website:

https://www.metabones.com/products/details/mb_spef-bmcc-bm1

Ef version. Contax to ef mount can be connected with an adapter. I imagine you already know that.

But haven't you been handling speedboosters a lot before?

Have you settled for Zeiss or Yashica ML?

Hi yes I did have this setup 7 years ago sold it all but now I am buying my old gear back. Owned pocked cinema camera with speed booster but it did not have any markings of  BMCC then I remember I just kept it and used it in BMCC2.5k 

you mentioned I can used ef speed booster made for BMCC with yashica adapter ?  I ever know that would that introduce any issues ?

thansk for your isn 

Hi guys I bought my self black magic cinema camera 2.5k MFT I also have set of yashica ml prime lenses, I am looking to purchase metabones speed buster. On metabones website they have new speed booster  Contax Yashica CY Lens to Micro Four Thirds Speed Booster ULTRA x0.71 CINE I am not sure if this one will work with my full frame lenses and BMCC 2.5k  as I was researching it say it might vignette with full frame lenses. Also 6 years back I owned this camera with metabones speed buster and same lenses but can’t remember which metabones it was I only found a pic of it below I think it might be 0.64x version what should I do here any help would be appreciated 

Hi guys looking to build set of lenses i i am focusing mostly on Carl Zeiss vintage lenses there are so many out there with same name what are the most looked after Carl Zeiss Planar T* ? And do they cover 6k or full frame?

They will cover the frame but why choose such cheap lenses for such a good sensor?

because money is the problem i guess cameras are mowing to full frame in the near future just looking for good set to buy

What set of primes would you guys recommend under 500 a lens

Are Yashica ml lenses full frame as in full frame that can be used on full frame video cameras like kinemini 6k LF thanks

Guys any idea if my metabone ultra 0.71 will work with this new pocket  since sensor is bigger

You can use a cheap adapter but no speedbooster to EF. You could have if you had the BMCC MFT.

Best way then is a EF to MFT speedbooster and just a regular adapter from CY to the EF booster.

Thanks guys for help. Mattias quick question before i buy a speedboster basically i need Canon EF Lens to Micro Four Thirds T Speed Booster ULTRA 0.71x to be able to use my yashica lenses

So basically it will go something like this just for me to understand BMCC EF then Metabones that has EF mount in the back and MFT at front then  CY adapter for yashica lense now iwt this Metabones can i use my canon rokinon lenses with adapter or i am asking to much here

So basically can u use my rokinon canon lenses and yashica lenses on a spedboster

Thanks

Hi guys i have yahsica Cy lenses and new BMCC EF and few rokinon lenses. I would like to use both lenses rokinon and yashica can i use my CY lenses with EF Speedbooster by using a simple adapter on the Speedbooster do you see any problems here and is there difference between ef and cy Speedbooster in quality

Thanks guys

You literally just said it. How can you be racist against a set of ideas or followers of a set of ideas?

You think they will just hate the idea? we seen what happens when People with guns hate the idea or believes of another race. China cultural revolution what happened to teachers and intellectuals, USSR same thing, Nazi Germany same thing i can keep going.

I wasn't aware that Islam was a race...

I don't know what substitutes for a race and don really care but his videos that he linked are racially motivated “cultural racism toward Muslims. Him in military get up and in some in night armor videos with big ass sword and shit. In Bosnia they produced same propaganda videos during war after war to nationalized people by same clubs with same names  like patriot leagues of Bosnia, or Horde of evil biggest racist Muslim group in Bosnia that makes same videos that he makes. Training preparing ecet ect and 70 of them from Horde of evil actually wen to Syria to fight with ISIS they all died there.

Just now, iamoui said:

Discussing ideas has no place on this forum?

A lot of things get people angry. Should we not discuss camera brands because there are loyalists who might get angry at any criticism of their favorite brand?

There is difference between camera brand and racist nationalist propaganda that he is pushing here

I think this entire HOT post should be deleted it has no place on this forum. Just gets people angry

My sentences were cut, they don't make a lot of sens but if you had the whole thing, it would.

I've talked a lot about immigration and what I like in Poland but nothing was kept in the final cut.

I ask ID and health certificate (or shooting license). Sometime, I ask private investigator to "scan" participant. (can't give you more details, it's confidential) 

Psychology is just a tool among many, I can feel the guy talking to him, spending time with him the day before the event.

this millionaire thing, yeah, it's a mistake, at least girls know it ahah

I would agree with you if we were a living in the 40', we're not, we're poisoned by a soft and hypocrite education promoting multiculturalism, passivity and other dangerous things.

 

I'm not looking for attraction personally, I want to promote Hussard.

I'm an artist, I have only 1 one year 1/2 of experience but I really believe hussard is art.

Better don't show your face

Can you sum up in two lines pleas?

 

I'm very proud of this last video, I shot it with a Nikon D5500. I have about 1 year 1/2 of experience shooting video. I'm sure you guys think it's not art, but I believe it is: 

 

I can sum it up in more then 2 lines you are just racist nationalist punk who is playing a Rambo take off your tin foil hat and stop watching Alex jones. ISIS, Taliban, KKK and every nationalist racist group from Europe to Canada to USA makes same shitty videos that you make trying to recruit people and make them fell like a patriot like there is big bad boggy man out there. Get a life get a women have some sugar in your coffee
