[QUOTE="hark, post: 780587, member: 13196"] The Nikon 1.4x TC will only cause one-stop light loss, not 1.4 stops. So since your current lens is a constant f/5.6, it will make it a constant f/8. What body do you use? Not all bodies are capable of focusing at f/8. To understand, please read this Nikon article. [URL]https://www.nikonimgsupport.com/na/NSG_article?articleNo=000028595&configured=1&lang=en_SG[/URL] Kenko makes a less expensive TC, but sharpness and will definitely suffer. You'd have to check the Nikon compatibility chart to find out if the 'ii' or 'iii' version of the TC would work best. Not all TC's are compatible with all lenses. [U][B]EDIT[/B][/U]: And here is that chart. It looks like both the 'ii' and the 'iii' are compatible.
