NOTICE
USABLE LENSES AND CONBINATION
  • Sigma APO Tele Converter 1.4x and 2x are dedicated Tele Converter lenses, which should be used with only listed lenses.
  • On the list of PENTAX AF, the lenses marked *3 can be used with Pentax MZ series camera body only.
  • Do not use the APO Tele Converter EX on top of another APO Tele Converter, or any other kinds of converters.
ATTACHING THE APO TELE CONVERTER TO THE LENS
  • First, attach the APO Tele Converter EX to the master lens. Then, attach the lens and the Tele Converter to the camera body. If you attach the Tele Converter to the camera body first it may cause a malfunction.
  • If using a lens with a MINOLTA AF and attaching the APO Tele Converter EX to the camera body first, it may cause the AF mechanism to run idle.
Focusing
  • On the lists, the lenses marked "AF" will retain auto focus operation when used with a Tele Converter. The lenses marked "MF can only be used for manual focus.
  • On the list of Canon AF, some lenses are working AF, even the though list says MF.
  • Some lenses will be operated AF even the list of MINOLTA AF, NIKON AF, PENTAX AF mentioned "MF", however, be aware that these lenses cannot focus precisely by auto focusing. Also, it is possible to make some trouble. Therefore, please be sure to use with MF.
  • *1 With 1.4x APO Tele Converter, AF can operate at distances more than 1.2m from the subject. If the subject is closer than 1.2m, only MF is available.
  • *2 When the Tele Converter is attached, the zoom range will be restricted to between 100mm to 500mm.
Exposure
  • Using the APO Tele Converter EX decreases the effective aperture by one F-stop (with 1.4x Tele Converter) or by two F-stops (with 2x Tele Converter). However, exposure can be determined in the same manner as when using the master lens without a Tele Converter.
  • If using a lens which has in the list, the camera's display will indicate the converted exposure information. If using a lens which does not have in the list while using a hand-held exposure meter, you should increase the exposure reading by 1-stop for the APO 1.4x Tele Converter EX or by 2-stops for the APO 2x Tele Converter EX.
  • When these converters are used with the Nikon F80/N80, F60/N60, F50/N50, F401/N404, u/F65/N65 series and the APS SLR cameras, the Diaphragm Control Ring must be set to the minimum F-stop.
