Are there still battery drain issues on the Viltrox Speedbooster?
1

Hey guys,

I recently bought the Canon M50 and I'm loving it. I have a Fotodiox adapter for my EF and EF-S lenses and it works beautifully so far.

I'm going to be traveling in August to Anaheim for the Disney D23 convention and Galaxy's Edge so I plan on taking a lot of pictures/videos while I'm there.

I was interested in getting the Viltrox EF-EOS M2 Lens Adapter but I've heard there were battery drain issues and that's might be a slight issue when I'm shooting all day.  (I'm planning on getting additional batteries and a portable charger so hot a huge issue.

Regardless, I just wanted to check and see if these issues are still prevalent in June of 2019.  There hasn't been any firmware updates since December but Amazon comments are still reporting battery drain issues as of a few days/weeks ago.

Thanks for the help!
