Pros:Sharpness in the center, reads the diaphragm correctly
Cons:Af does not work with the Tamorn 70-200 g2, high vignetting at TA, non-negligible chromatic aberration.
Opinion:Recently purchased to double the Tamron 70-200 f/2.8 g2 with Canon EOS R and its adapter. I confirm what Mrsbpier wrote, the AF does not go, but fortunately with mirrorless you can use the manual MAF with 10 x magnification on the electronic viewfinder and you're done (better than with focus peaking, which is sometimes not as accurate). The stabilizer works, instead. The image quality surprised me positively, even at f/5.6 it is better than at f/8! Excellent central sharpness. Visible vignetting at TA and chromatic aberration, both correctable in post. With the Sigma Art 50 mm f/1.4 the MAF works, but it is not precise, better also in this case to use the manual one. However with this lens the surrender did not drive me crazy ... Unfortunately, my first specimen was decentralized. I had a second sent to me and this is better, even if it's still not perfect...
Opinion:I purchased this multiplier for occasional use, attracted by its much more competitive price than the Nikon or Tamron one. The lens to be used in pairing for me would have been Tamron's 70-200 VC. Unfortunately, with this objective the AF does not go, forcing the use of manual focus. It must be said, however, that the image quality is excellent, although it generates a bit of vignetting and obviously brings the diaphragm from f/2.8 to f/5.6. I recommend that you always check on the net and on the official website if the lens with which you plan to use it is supported, since the price is not suitable in my opinion for a teleconverter only MF.
Pros:Price, colour rendition. Perfect "Interview" with the next generation Nikon cameras.
Cons:Apart from the problems of all focal multipliers that inevitably duplicate even the diaphragm, none compared to similar products.
Opinion:Purchased it for use with a Nikon 750 after trying (with disappointment) the Nikon TC-20E III and also having discovered that the original Nikon duplicator cannot be matched to all optics. In the past with a Nikon 801S I had been able to use a Kenko Af MC4 and I was satisfied with it. So I approached the Kenko Teleplus HD Pro 2X DGX without delay, given the features listed on the official Kenko website. The only difficulty I found was in finding it at a good price in Europe. Purchased from Germany, after a month of intensive use with Nikon 2.8 lenses and more closed zooms I can only give him a deserved 10 in report card. A 10, of course, equated with the category of focal multipliers. Place correctly with the D750 and correctly provides all the lens data, including focal duplication. In this way you can take pictures even without the use of a tripod and the D750 is able to do in automatic all its evaluations to make a shot without corrections. As the optics at aperture 2.8 or lower the focus, albeit a bit slower, happens in a precise and automatic. With high focal lengths and apertures greater than 2.8 can take manual focus. But it is not necessary to fix the focal aperture. As far as I am concerned I am very satisfied. Definitely worth the money spent. A negative note I make it to the bag container offered in the package Kenko: it is of bad material like skin. Compared to the Nikon TC-20E III (which I immediately returned) I then detected:-Identical color rendition. -Identical focus response. -Apparent slight higher brightness especially with older Nikon lenses. -Full compatibility with the entire range of Nikon lenses (as opposed to the Nikon TC-20E III). -Same ability to "converse" with the next generation Nikon camera bodies. -Lower price.
