Speedbooster no love for x mount??

[GaryLH]

Speedbooster just release Nikon lens mount adapter for e mount (Nex isn't it) and m43 but I don't c one for x mount yet on their site. I guess m43 and e mount sales more important to them..... 🙁. Hopefully they will eventually get around to it.

Imho, nothing to worry about here. They release first for most popular platforms and later for the least to maximize their profits.

Actually Gary, I remember picking up on word about a Metabones Nikon F to Fuji X adapter on some Fuji forum (don't remember the one, and I'm too lazy to dig it up).

A little research found a mysterious, image-less Metabones product on Adorama which is exactly what you're pining for:

I've had it in my shopping cart for almost a month, LOL. The description lists the item as out of stock but with Adorama its more than likely just a matter of time till it's available. Haven't pulled the trigger yet but it might be interesting to e-mail/call Adorama about the availability of the above item. If curiosity gets the better of me and I reach out to Adorama I'll share my findings here.

Well... Could not resist any longer.. My nikor ais 35f1.4 was calling and the siren call was just too tempting.. Thinking my 35 and 50 f1.4 will become f1.2 in theory. ..

Still showing up back ordered in the cart, but now that metabones shows inventory... It is just a matter of time.
