Re: blog post- the next stop up from 2.8 is 4.0.
The SB focuses more light into a smaller area while also reducing the imaged area, thus reducing optical defects (at least in the center) as well as increasing detail. See: http://www.metabones.com/images/meta...te%20Paper.pdf
This is the opposite effect as an extender.

I have ordered many things from china before on ebay and usually they take at least 1.5-2 weeks if not more. I guess Metabones uses some fancy shipping. I just ordered a full frame 28-300 VC lens to use on it from KEH and it took about the same amount of time to arrive via fedex from Atlanta...Noah Yuan-Vogel

PS: The fact that there is glass added between the lens and the camera and that there is more (little more) detail... yes it canSony FS7's (x2) / Sony FS100's (x2) / BMCC 2.5/

If I'm not mistaken, an extender might increase your detail, not a reducer. (but then an extender would also introduce/exasurbate all the bad junk too,)Noah Yuan-Vogel

Metabones Speed Booster question
Consider the following combination:
Sony NEX-FS100U Super 35mm Sensor Camcorder body:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...mm_Sensor.html
Metabones Canon EF Lens to Sony NEX Camera Speed Booster:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...to_emount.html
Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 Lens:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...f_2_8L_IS.html
Which lens functions can be controlled from the FS100 using this combination?
Aperature?
Auto Focus?
Zoom?
Image Stabilization?
Let me know what you find.

IS : YES but the on/off switch is on the lens, not on the camera.
Other : No.

now if you use a secondary 'perfect' lens element to project that 4000 line pair image onto the S35 area you would have 4000 line pairs over the S35 area, ie doubled the resolution, now consider the secondary element is imperfect and introduces 10% resolution loss then you are down to 3600 line pairs over the S35 area.
3600 is more than 2000
