The Kenko HD pro is a premium series of tele converters specifically designed to be used with high resolution DSLR cameras and lenses.
By installing it between the lens and the camera body, Teleplus HD PRO 2.0X increases the effective focal length of your lens by 2.0x.
OPTICAL FEATURES IMPROVEMENTS
Optical construction has been redesigned by implementing additional optical elements and by incorporating improved multi-layer anti-reflection coating to keep the original performance of the new generation DSLR camera and lenses.
COMMUNICATION WITH CAMERA
Equipped with all electrical contacts to support communication between the camera and the lens. The focal length and aperture values will be recorded in EXIF data and converted to the actual shooting values with the tele converter installed.
GORGEOUS EXTERNAL FINISH
The external design has been retouched in a black leather tone finish to perfectly match with the latest lenses and DSLR cameras.
COMPACT IN SIZE
With approx. 4cm in height this small, compact and convenient to carry tele converters will extend the focal length of the lens providing the photographer a great chance to shoot impressive images.
PRACTICAL ADVANTAGES
Kenko TELEPLUS teleconverters can dramatically change your photos by making the object appear larger in the image and yet maintaining its high resolution and quality. This result can be achieved by simply using this lightweight and compact tele converter even if you do not have or cannot afford a good and powerful super tele lens.
PRECAUTIONS
- Turn off optical correction functions, Vibration Reduction (VR) or Image Stabilizer (IS) functions, focus aid assistance and AF micro adjustment functions before using Kenko TELEPLUS teleconverter.
- Proper work and accuracy of AF mode only when the lens has a resulting aperture* of f/5.6 or faster. If the resulting aperture is greater than f/5.6 manual focus is strongly recommended.
* resulting aperture = wide open aperture value of the master lens x magnification of the lens converter.
BETTER TO KNOW
Tele converters can provide plenty of advantages but, like other optical add-on accessories, tends to:
- Shallow the depth of field.
- Make your optical system darker as they increase the aperture equivalent value.
- Affect the sharpness of the image (mostly large magnification converters).
STORAGE
When not in use, please remove Kenko TELEPLUS teleconverter from your camera and lens and store it separately.
Precisely made in Japan and compatible with a wide range of genuine cameras and lenses, it is particularly helpful for those professional photographers as well as amateurs who may need a tele lens but feel no reason to purchase a new expensive one due to low frequency of use. Its small size and compact design also allow to conveniently carry it all the time in your gears bag instead of numerous and heavy lenses.
An optional accessory to bring your photos on a new level of creativity in the most convenient way.
NOTE: HD Teleconverters are not compatible with Nikon AI or AI-S lenses. If the lens has a manual control aperture ring it will not function.
