With the use of adapters, such as Metabones speed booster 0,71x or smart adapter 1x, FF or APS-C lenses can be used on MFT cameras. Nauticam supports housing of these adapters.
I plan to use a Canon mount fisheye zoom lens with Oly EM5MII UW (native MFT FE zoom lenses do not exist) and wonder wich combination may be better:
#1.: Canon 8-15mm FE (FF) with x1 adapter. Diagonal angle of view (AOV) would be 175-80 degrees.
Optimum AOV, but lot of light is lost as only fraction of image circle used for sensor image.
#2.: Tokina 10-17mm FE (APS-C) with x0,71 booster. AOV: (200, so cut off circle)180-105 degrees.
gain of aperture, because booster, but vignetting may be strong as more of the image circle of the lens is projected to sensor (crop 1,42x) compared to APS-C sensor w/o booster (crop 1,53x-1,62x depending on model).
Grateful for comments. Maybe someone tested out such combinations already...
