Speed Booster ULTRA?

With the old speed booster you can lock it in whichever mode so starts up every time in that mode. I would think the ultra will be exactly the same.
 
Ok, so I'm talking specifically ultra here - every time I fire up camera, metabones has defaulted back to green with limited info(zoom range, stop etc) is there a method to lock it or am I missing something?
 
Yeah there is. I have not done it yet myself though. For some reason i seem to forget it over and over again! But i remember to put it in advanced mode every time i shoot.

To make advanced mode your default is simple:

1. Start up the camera
2. Attach the adapter to a lens first
3. Hold down the wide open button
4. Attach the adapter / lens to the camera but DO NOT let the wide open button get released
5. Check viewfinder to be sure you’re in Advanced Mode
6. Power off the camera without ever letting go of the wide open button

That is it. Your done, green mode is gone. I have tested all five of my Canon lenses (Four “L” lenses and a 2X extender). Even my old 35mm to 350mm zoom works now without Green Mode hassles. I bought that lens back around 1993.

My Metabones is the Smart Adapter II, Firmware V30 (the latest, recently upgraded).

I am getting my Ultra on monday. Its the Sony one and I already have the LA-EA4 which I am very happy about. But I could not resist the extra stop. ;)
