Great piece for the price.

Have been using on scenery and wildlife as well as shots of the moon. It won't autofocus above 2.8 but has given a nice added bump to focal length of my lenses.

produces an ok picture.

i use it to extend the range of my shots.it's easy to attatch,and solidly built.with careful focusing you get some sharp pictures.does not work in af with lenses that have an af switch. best used with these lenses in manual.does cut down the light on cloudy days.because i only use it on sunny days that's not a problem.there are better on the market but, this one does ok.

auto focus dont works in most lens

The product is good quality and come very complete, is easy to install and works, but the main issue is the autofocus is void if your lens is 4 or higher, that means that only work if your lens are very light, and if you have expensive lens probably will not need converter. It is good for take pictures to static things.

Good and easy TC for Sony Lenses

Takes a little getting used to using. So far all OK. Works well on the Sony 500 Reflex lens. Alpha 100 and the Alpha 350.
