Maybe I am misunderstanding the use of a speedbooster, and i am hoping someone can put me on the right path.
I have an SL3. I am being asked more and more by my company to take photos of classes we are promoting on the manufacturers website. The problem is, I find myself more and more in low light situations. Obviously, I end up getting a lot of noise in my photos, and am getting a lot of motion blur due to having a slow shutter speed.
I cannot afford a full frame camera, so the crop sensor was fine until now.
I ran across a a few articles about speed boosters. my understanding was it would take the light from your lenses, and focus them fully on the cropped sensor.
am I correct with that?
I have a pretty good set of lenses for the SL3, so my idea was to get a speed booster that fits the SL3 lenses, and be able to focus the full light onto the crop sensor of the SL3.
Am I correct? Is that how it works?
If I am, I was told Canon makes a speed booster for this.
Please help set me right.

What you need is a "Light Booster".
Get a flash for your camera and bounce the light off the ceiling to light up the whole room for a group photo. If the room is too large, you may need two or even three flash units that you can fire remotely.
