Product Description
-------------------
The new CONVERTER MC-11 allows you to use your SIGMA SA
interchangeable lenses with the Sony E- camera
body.Until now, the market has seen the introduction of many
methods for using lenses from one camera system with a body from
a different system. In the digital age, however, camera systems
have become much more complex, and it is challenging to create a
converter that aligns both the mechanics and software of
the lens and body. Creating a converter that matches lenses for
current DSLRs to bodies for mirrorless interchangeable-lens
camera systems is even more challenging. Now the market demands a
converter that goes beyond simply aligning the flange back
distance to retaining full functionality. The CONVERTER
MC-11 is ideal for professional photographers who use different
camera systems depending on the subject, as well as amateur
photographers who enjoy using a variety of camera systems.
Increasing the compatibility of lenses with different camera
systems makes these assets more valuable than ever. In addition,
users of Sony E- camera bodies will enjoy an immediate
increase in the number of lenses available to them. The
CONVERTER MC-11 incorporates the digital data necessary to
provide fast and smooth AF for compatible lenses as well as OS
features and functions of the camera that help control peripheral
brightness and correct transverse chromatic aberration,
distortion, and more. In addition, since Sony E- camera
bodies do not require mechanical integration with lenses for
aperture control, the CONVERTER MC-11 makes SIGMA SA
interchangeable lenses fully compatible with the automatic
exposure control of Sony E- camera bodies. Thanks to
compatibility with auto-image area setting functionality, SIGMA
DC lenses for APS-C sensors can be used with camera bodies with
full-frame sensors without the need for any special operation.
Fast and smooth autofocus performanceWhen used with a camera body
that is compatible with Fast Hybrid AF, AF-S mode delivers
extremely fast and smooth autofocus performance. With other
camera bodies, contrast detection AF offers very high-precision
autofocusing. Easy to use interfaceThe LED display on the
CONVERTER MC-11 makes it easy to know whether an attached lens is
compatible or not and whether the converter control data or
lens firmware needs to be updated for operation with that lens.
When attaching a lens to the MC-11, if the LED is green, the lens
is compatible. If the LED flashes green, the lens firmware needs
to be updated using the SIGMA USB DOCK (sold separately). If the
LED flashes orange, the MC-11 requires an update via its own USB
port to retrieve new lens data. If the LED does not light up, the
lens is not compatible and will not function correctly.
CONVERTER MC-11 incorporates the data necessary for each
compatible lens and uses a dedicated control program to optimise
AF drive, aperture control, and other functions. It is compatible
with functions of the camera that maintain peripheral brightness
and correct transverse chromatic aberration, distortion, and
more. As new compatible lenses are released, control data for
CONVERTER MC-11 can be updated via a personal computer.
Other featuresCompatible with optical stabilisation features of
both lens and camera bodyThe compatibility of CONVERTER
MC-11 with the OS features of both the lens and the camera body
makes possible superior correction of camera shake and other
stability issues. When used with a camera body that features an
OS function, CONVERTER MC-11 allows angle shake correction
in the lens for superior corrective performance. Flocking inside
barrel helps prevent internal reflections CONVERTER MC-11
features flocking in its interior to help prevent internal
reflections and a reduction in lens performance. Compatibility
with Exif dataLens type, focal length, F number, and other tags
are embedded as Exif data in the image file.
