London, United Kingdom — October 2026 — ChackTok, the professional event imaging software platform for photo booths, robotic camera arms and 3D scanning systems, is extending its booth platform to the mirrorless cameras that professionals and rental companies already own. The ChackTok mirrorless camera compatibility program starts with five top-selling bodies across Sony, Nikon, Fujifilm and Panasonic: the Sony a6100, Sony a7C, Nikon Z50 II, Fujifilm X-T30 II and Panasonic LUMIX S9. Each is paired with a named Canon EF lens adapter, so operators can reuse their EF glass. As of March 2026, ChackTok had more than 390,000 registered users, more than 65,000 photo booth devices connected and controlled, and more than 780,000 commercial events supported.

Every camera in the program comes from the top 100 models by market share. These are the bodies event teams already carry, rent or can source quickly. Each pairing uses a smart adapter whose maker specifies autofocus, electronic aperture control and EXIF data transfer for Canon EF and EF-S lenses.

Which configuration fits which event

Configuration: Sony a7C + Metabones Mark V + EF 28-80mm
Framing with the paired lens: True 28mm wide to 80mm on full frame
Best-fit event task: Full-body 360 spins and large group shots
Why it fits: A full-frame sensor keeps the full 28mm field of view

Configuration: Panasonic LUMIX S9 + Viltrox EF-L Pro + EF 28-80mm
Framing with the paired lens: True 28mm wide to 80mm on full frame
Best-fit event task: Compact full-frame setups for brand activations
Why it fits: Full-frame body; the Viltrox EF-L Pro locks the lens to the mount

Configuration: Nikon Z50 II + Fringer EF-NZ II + EF-S 18-55mm IS II
Framing with the paired lens: About 27–83mm equivalent
Best-fit event task: Weddings and parties that mix groups and portraits
Why it fits: Optically stabilized EF-S zoom on a 20.9 MP DX body

Configuration: Fujifilm X-T30 II + Fringer EF-FX Pro III + EF-S 18-55mm IS II
Framing with the paired lens: About 27–83mm equivalent
Best-fit event task: Portrait-led booths that want a Fujifilm look
Why it fits: 26.1 MP X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor; the adapter adds an electronic aperture ring

Configuration: Sony a6100 + Metabones Mark V + EF-S 18-55mm IS II or EF 28-80mm
Framing with the paired lens: About 27–83mm or 42–120mm equivalent
Best-fit event task: Building rental fleets on Sony E-mount
Why it fits: Shares an adapter and lenses with the a7C, so one Sony kit covers both bodies

For full-body 360 and large-group work, the full-frame Sony a7C or Panasonic LUMIX S9 with the EF 28-80mm is the natural choice, because the full 28mm field of view is kept. For mixed group and portrait events, an APS-C body with the stabilized EF-S 18-55mm IS II covers the most common framings with one lens.

How the photo booth camera compatibility program works

ChackTok built the program for photo booth operators and rental companies who need professional image quality, reuse of the lenses they own and one workflow across mixed camera fleets. Cameras are chosen from the top 100 models by market share and must use a mainstream mirrorless mount with an available Canon EF smart adapter. For each body, ChackTok selected an adapter whose manufacturer documents autofocus, electronic aperture control and EXIF support. Each body is paired with two widely owned Canon zooms: the EF-S 18-55mm IS II and the EF 28-80mm. Sensor formats come from the camera makers’ published specifications. Each camera, adapter and lens pairing is then adapted hands-on to the ChackTok booth workflow: mounting, capture, transfer, effects and sharing.

Benefits for 360 photo booth operators and rental companies

– Reuse existing Canon EF glass. Operators moving from DSLRs keep the EF lenses they already own.
– Lower upfront investment. A mainstream mirrorless body plus an EF zoom you already have gives you a professional booth camera without buying into a new lens system.
– One lens pool for the whole rental fleet. The same EF lenses serve Sony E, Nikon Z, Fujifilm X and L-Mount bodies, which simplifies inventory and event-day swaps.
– Professional image quality. APS-C and full-frame sensors give cleaner footage in dim venues and stronger subject separation.
– One workflow. Event templates, AI Cutout background replacement, slow-motion effects, overlays and instant sharing by QR code, SMS, email and social media run the same way in the ChackTok app, whichever camera is mounted.

Which ChackTok photo booths it applies to

The program covers ChackTok’s 360 photo booth line: the 360 Standard Photo Booth, the Lite 360 (CD Model) and the Magic Glass 360. It also covers the Glambot Video Photo Booth with its six-axis robotic arm. Setup steps are in How to Use ChackTok, and the app is available from the ChackTok download page.

“Event professionals and rental companies have already invested in mirrorless bodies and Canon EF lenses, and this program is built to put that gear to work on ChackTok booths,” said Rudy, spokesperson for ChackTok. “Starting with five top-selling Sony, Nikon, Fujifilm and Panasonic cameras, operators can run 360 and Glambot setups from one ChackTok workflow, with one shared EF lens pool across their fleet.”
