[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 185854, member: 12496"] Caution: Regarding the Nikon teleconverters, there are combinations of lenses which are no-no, this being one. Be sure to FIRST read the Nikon compatibility information (available on the B&H page for the specific teleconverter). See [URL]http://www.nikonusa.com/en_INC/IMG/Assets/Common-Assets/Images/Teleconverter-Compatibility/EN_Comp_chart.html[/URL] Says because of the way some lens extend their rear elements backwards, and the way these teleconverters extend their front element forwards, there can be contact and glass damage if used in other combinations. I don't know about the Kenko, I assume third party stuff has to try to be more compatible. But Nikon is good quality because they can do what is good on specific lenses, instead of what will fit any lens known to man. (my own notions). [/QUOTE]
