Discover your favourite lenses anew!
The Techart TZM-01 autofocus bayonet adapter is designed to not interfere with the performance of your favourite analogue lenses. The mechanism used does not move its rings or add any optical element that could change the specifics of the drawn image. The secret of the TZM-01 is an extremely precise motor that zooms the entire lens in or out of the sensor. The built-in chip, in conjunction with the camera’s electronics, determines the correct position of the lens, thus focusing the frame at the selected point. This way, when working with manual lenses, you will never miss the most important moments because of having to turn the focus ring again! The device also supports solutions such as face or eye recognition. So older lens models will finally be able to take advantage of the practical innovations of modern cameras!
The magic of the Leica M system
M-system lenses have won praise from photographers and filmmakers around the world for their exceptional optical quality. With them, there are no compromises when it comes to weight or materials used. Metal tubes and top-quality lenses produce stunning images, full of detail and sharpness. Many photographers say the only thing they need to be happy when working with M-series lenses is autofocus. This is where the fast and extremely precise Techart TZM-01 adapter comes to the rescue: the impossible finally becomes possible! And equipment equipped with Leica M bayonets gains the functionality we have been dreaming of for a long time!
Autofocus in almost any lens
The Techart TZM-01 autofocus bayonet adapter is equipped with an M mount. However, the manufacturer has taken care of owners of analogue lenses of other brands. The usefulness of the adapter does not end only with rangefinder camera glass! Simply install an additional adapter on the Leica M bayonet and analogue lenses from systems such as Nikon F, Canon EF, Canon FD, Pentax K, Minolta MD, Olympus OM, M42, Leica R, Contax/Yashica gain autofocus, giving you a whole new quality of work!
ADAPTERS FOR OTHER MOUNTING SYSTEMS MUST BE PURCHASED SEPARATELY.
Speed and precision sharpening
The use of high-quality components and continuous software development is a guarantee of precise and lightning-fast operation with a camera to which an analogue lens is connected with the Techart TZM-01 adapter. An old analogue can work as fast as modern glass with built-in AF! The adapter is compatible with Nikon Z mirrorless cameras such as Nikon Z 5, Nikon Z 6, Nikon Z 6II, Nikon Z 7, Nikon Z 7II, Nikon Z 50.
3 autofocus modes
The Techart TZM-01 autofocus bayonet adapter supports up to 3 different autofocus modes – single AF-S and continuous (AF-C and AF-F). In single mode, when you hold the shutter button halfway down, the camera will focus and lock the exposure. The AF-C variant will be indispensable when shooting moving subjects. With the Techart TZM-01 bayonet adapter, you will use your favourite lenses for sports or nature photography, among others. The AF-F mode, on the other hand, will be appreciated by those who use analogue lenses for filming.
Closer to the subjects photographed
M-system lenses do not always allow you to focus at close range. The Techart TZM-01 autofocus bayonet adapter will not only provide you with smoothly functioning autofocus, but similarly to existing helicoid adapters on the market, it will also allow you to reduce the minimum focusing distance offered by your chosen analogue glass. With this innovative modifier, the world of macro stands open to you!
One adapter, multiple lenses
The Techart TZM-01 autofocus bayonet adapter weighs just 160 grams, so that when it’s attached to your lens, you won’t feel that there’s an extra device in your photographic luggage. Low weight, however, does not mean that it is a fragile piece of equipment. The innovative adapter’s state-of-the-art motor ensures smooth operation with lenses weighing up to 700 grams! At the same time, the metal, well-fitted housing will ensure a feeling of quality and safety. So you can be sure that by choosing the Techart brand you are getting a solid adapter for many years to come!
