Tamron AF 1.4x Teleconverter 35mm Converters

 

Tamron advertises that you will retain autofocus if the master lens is at least f4.5 or faster but I am using this telecoverter with my Sigma 400mm f5.6 for the canon EF mount and my Canon EOS 10s and this combo still retains autofocus. I find that it...

retains autofocus for me anyway

when I attach it it is kind of tight to mount

Tamron AF 1.4x Teleconverter 35mm Converters

 

After reading some of the other reviews for this teleconverter, I wanted to add my own experience. Unlike some others, I have been delighted with the Tamron 1.4X converter. I used it with a Nikon 80-200 f2.8D to take a picture a few months ago that won...

Inexpensive. Conveys D information for Nikon and other D compatible lenses. Light and sufficiently sharp for all but work where maximum sharpness is needed at the edges of the image. AF was acceptable though not outstanding

Slight corner softness

Tamron AF 1.4x Teleconverter 35mm Converters

 

I have used many teleconverters in the past, and frankly gave up on 2.0 converters. I found however, the Tamron 1.4 was acceptable when used with a reasonable quality lens.I currently used it on a Tamron XR28-300 and did not notice much degradation in...

Reasonable cost, decent on better quality lenses

decreases zoom ability. Zoom seeks much more when used with it

I was in the process of switching from Olympus Equipment to Nikon. I could not quite afford a 400mm plus lens so I but a old 300mm f4.5 nikkor and added a Tamron 1.4 converter for when I need extra reach photographing ducks. I was pleasantly suprised...

Price and sharpnes on a Nikkor 300.mm f4.5 lens

Not as sharp as my Nikkor 300mm prime

Tamron AF 1.4x Teleconverter 35mm Converters

 

The Tamron 1.4x TC + 300/4 produced a 420/5.6 with better optical performance than the Tokina 400/5.6 AT-X AF. However, AF was tediously slow. When used with a zoom, even one considered to be good like the 80-200/2.8D, I found that image quality...

Inexpensive.Flush front element means it fits just about any lens.Good performance (see "The Bottom Line" for details.Nikon D compatible

Slowed down the autofocus speed on my 80-200/2.8D and 300/4. (Keep in mind that these lenses are not known for focusing speed, so take this with a grain of salt.)
