What to Compare Before Buying
- Lens compatibility: Check that your exact Sony lens matches the stated compatible models.
- Magnification: This is a 2.0X extender, so it changes the effective focal length of the lens you attach it to.
- Camera communication: If autofocus and EXIF transmission matter, confirm that your camera and lens combination supports them with this extender.
- Optical trade-off: A teleconverter sits between camera and lens, so buyers should compare the need for extra reach against the change in the optical path.
Before You Decide
Check that your exact lens is one of the listed compatible models before choosing an offer. Confirm that you want a 2.0X teleconverter rather than a different magnification. If autofocus and EXIF transmission matter to your setup, make sure the camera, lens and extender combination matches your needs.
