Took this for a spin in the mountains of Colorado. Paired it with a Sigma 70-200/2.8 and it focused well with a Sony A77m2. Liked the reach, but not crazy about the impact on bokeh (made it "busy"), when the 2.8 by itself has nice smooth backgrounds.

This is an excellent answer to extending your current lens for that occasional special photo. It does not replace an extended lens for your camera.

Your salesman Larry was most helpful. I haven't had a chance to really use the lens yet.

Good quality teleconverter. It is always a little challenge to use a 2X teleconverter due to the loss of 2 stops of light and it requires some practice to be able to focus correctly. Results are good and quite sharp.

Fits my Canon EOS Rebel T3 and my 70-300 IS and does what I hoped it would do. But have also ordered a Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD Autofocus lens for Canon EOS Cameras, the MC-7 is "Supposed" to fit.

It drastically reduces your f-stop. It's buggy, especially with my older 50mm. Will not allow my newer Nikon 105mm VR autofocus.

I was told it would not work with my Tamron 18-270 lens but it works just fine. Of course it needs support for the camera at long telephoto but this is to be expected. I was surprised at how well the autofocus worked.

Just received it 2 weeks ago and have not had much time to test it. However, I took a few pictures at a familiar location and it performed as expected. I am happy with the product.

I was looking to get a bit more zoom out of my 200 mm lens and this did the trick . For the money it is a good lens.

Used to take pictures of a solar eclipse, the fact that the auto focus would not work with the standard canon EF lenses was disappointing. Having to manually focus the lens can be difficult, but it behaved as expected. I used it attached to a 80-200 mm zoom lens. I am happy with the final output. Image quality did not seem to suffer. I would not use this for fast action or low light when used with a long lens.

Since I bought mine I get emails from Adorama asking for feedback to specific info requests, but the link provided doesn't get me to those requests, just to the overall product page. And since I can't reply to the email from Adorama itself, the whole thing "ask a question and a knowlegeable customer will reply" thing is a bit of a joke. I'm using this item with a Sigma 150-500, itself not the sharpest of lenses (but ok for the price), and with the converter I can't expect tack-sharp pix. Manual focus only, so BIF etc. are tough to shoot. Static objects are best, on tripod with remote release of course. Hope this helps. Recommended within the obvious limitations - don't expect the world.

Kenko MC7 AF 2x Teleplus converter gives you the dramatic effect of doubling the focal length. KENKO AF Teleplus converters have genuine Gated Array IC. This means that not only the converters own data but all data sent from the camera body provide full exposure metering and electronic flash photography. Auto focus is retained with lens that have a maximum aperture of F/4 or brighter. (Manual focusing will be required with lenses of smaller aperture)
