Rated 5 out of 5

Works great, even with LA-EA3/A6300 and LA-EA4/A6000

I have Sigma APO70-200 F2.8EX DG HSM and APO150-500 F5-6.3 DG HSM lenses. The 70-200 worked very well with the teleconverter and the A6300/LA-EA3 or A6000/LA-EA4, including autofocus. The 150-500 worked with the A6300/LA-EA3 or A6000/LA-EA4, but only in Manual Focus. Based on info on Sigma's web site (http://www.sigmaphoto.com/lenses/lens-resources/teleconverter-compatibility), I wasn't sure that the lens/teleconverter/E-mount converter combo would work. I am pleased to report that it does work fully with the 20-200, and in Manual Focus mode with the 150-500. Sigma says explicitly (in a private e-mail) that the MC-11/TC-1401/150-600 will not work together. My experience with my setup suggests there are no technical impediments to making the combo work, if they chose to do so.

Love it! But it's made for Sigma Lenses

Typical of the better Sigma lenses, this teleconverter does its job extremely well. As indicated though, it is designed to be used with Sigma lenses. I use it consistently with their 100-300 zoom for wildlife and it allows auto focus with my Minolta. I would have preferred that it work with all my lenses but after using it once in the field, I was hooked.

Does not fit my MINOLTA lenses, sold it.

The converter are made only for SIGMA-lenses and did not fit my MINOLTA-lenses. I sold it.
