Fotodiox Pro has launched five new lens adapters for the forthcoming Fujifilm GFX medium-format system. This will allow lenses from other systems to be used with the GFX 50S, though as Fotodiox`s website points out, not every lens will give great results. All tilt-shift lenses and many full-frame lenses longer than 50mm will cover the GFX`s sensor, but anything wider will produce vignetting.
The new lineup features adapters for the Canon EF-Mount, Nikon F-Mount, Olympus OM-Mount, Mamiya 645, and Contax. The adapters are priced at $150 with the exception of the Mamiya 645, which is priced at $170.
The adapters are made entirely from metal with chrome-plated brass mounts and a `precise fit and solid connection.` The company also says it uses `enhanced craftsmanship and high-tolerance construction for demanding professionals.`
Finally, Fotodiox cautions, `This is a manual adapter, so lens functions that rely on electronic communication with the camera body (autofocus, AE metering, image stabilization, etc.) will be disrupted.` All five lens adapters are available from the company`s website now.
