The Metabones Canon EF to Sony FZ T CINE Smart Adapter allows a Canon EF or EF-S mount lens to be mounted onto a Sony FZ-mount camera, including the F5, and F55. It features precision-machined, chromium-plated brass mounting surfaces on both the lens and camera sides. The adapter is designed to support electronic communication between the camera and lens, allowing image stabilization as well as camera-controlled aperture functions. It also features an assignable function button. If an attached lens is also capable of generating EXIF metadata, the adapter passes that information for the camera to record in its metadata stream.

The adapter features a locking EF mount, providing a sturdy, wiggle-free, solid attachment of the lens to your camera. Just forward of the locking ring is a large cine-style geared iris control ring, which allows you to control the iris of your lens manually if you wish. In addition to the communication to allow your lens to work with an FZ mount camera, the adapter also allows the lens information to be displayed in the camera's viewfinder. The adapter uses the camera to power the lens, and does not require an additional power source. Internal flocking reduces the chance of internal reflections, which can degrade your image.
