Hi Jim

Thanks so much for getting back to me.

I was doing the same thing with the middle pin, popping it out every time it got stuck – but eventually it was happening way too often for it to be useable.

Hopefully things will work like they should since getting the camera and adapter repaired.

One last question, do you use lens support on any of your lenses? I do – but only for the Canon 70-200 f2.8. I was wondering if the weight of the lens might have had anything to do with the pin sticking?

Hi Jim,

I had the same issue with my FS7 and metabones speedbooster ultra. I took it back to my place of purchase and they blamed the fault on the metabones. So Sony repaired the camera at metabones cost, and metabones have replaced / repaired the speedbooster. I’m hesitant to use it again, but obviously I love the results it gives. Have you had any more problems with you FS7 / metabones?
