Sigma APO Teleconverter 1.4x Ex DG for Nikon

These APO Tele Converters are compatible with digital cameras, and when mounted between the lens and the camera body, they can increase the focal length of the lens by the power of 1.4 or 2. They are also compatible with the AF function, depending on the open-aperture F value of the lens being used, and they work with the AE (Automatic Exposure) function, dispensing with complicated exposure calculations. They increase maximum photography magnification by 1.4X or 2X, without any variation in the minimum focusing distance.

• If using a lens which has "o" in the list, the camera's display will indicate the converted exposure information. If using a lens which does not have "o" in the list while using a hand-held exposure meter, you should increase the exposure reading by 1-stop for the APO 1.4x Tele Converter EX or by 2-stops for the APO 2x Tele Converter EX.
