[QUOTE="J-see, post: 431795, member: 31330"] I use the Nikon TC2.0 but solely for macro at the moment. I manually shaved it so it can fit more lenses but only those that allow it to physically attach. There needs to be enough room between the front part of the TC and the back element of the lens. For my macro lens I use an extension ring between both to get around that problem. That combination affects my focus range since it kills infinity but that's never a problem for macro. I tried it on other lenses but a 2x is rather light demanding and only the fastest lenses have a chance of auto-focusing with them. It also requires some serious closing down to get a good enough sharpness which limits their use to good light conditions only. Manually focusing with a 2x attached also requires some practice.
