This teleconverter effectively doubles your lens's focal length without significantly altering the minimum object distance, enhancing close-up magnification. Designed to maintain the original lens's image quality, it features a Low Dispersion element to reduce aberrations and anti-reflection coatings to minimise ghosting and flare. It supports autofocus and vibration compensation with compatible lenses, ensuring seamless operation and stability in your photography.
Features
Enhanced Magnification and Image Quality
Although the maximum focal length is increased, the minimum object distance remains nearly the same, so the magnification ratio during close focusing is enhanced. Both tele converters are carefully designed and constructed to preserve the original superior image quality of the lens. The 2.0x model uses one LD (Low Dispersion) lens element to suppress aberrations. BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) coatings are deployed on both models to help minimize ghosting and flare.
Autofocus and VC Features
Autofocus and VC (Vibration Compensation) features are retained with compatible lenses
Autofocus functions normally with compatible lenses. (Please refer to Compatible Tamron Lens List below.)
VC (Vibration Compensation) performance is maintained.
