5out of 5

Pros: Very Bright for a 2x, Lightweight, Easy To Use

Cons: Less Sharp

Best Uses: Landscape Photography, Traveling, Everyday use, Wildlife

Describe Yourself: Semi-Professional

This is as good as any 2x aftermarket TC. I have used it on a Nikon 300 f/4 taking pictures of Eagles and it still handled AF at a wide open aperture. It is less sharp and the contrast and saturation is reduced, though acceptable. The only TC that I have used that is sharper is the Nikon, but it is dimmer. I wouldn't use it for Macro photography as the contrast would be a bit weak. Otherwise it is a great bargain!
