Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. How will the TC-14E III work coupled with a Tamron 150-600 to a D810?

A: I have used this converter with a Nikon 200-500 zoom on a D3s and a D7200. On both cameras there seems to be essentially no image degradation. I suspect the limiting component will be the Tamron lens. I would have a little concern with the combination on a D810 unless the platform is very stable given the very high resolution and somewhat unforgiving nature of that camera.

Q: 2. Is this compatible with 70-200 f/2.8 VR II *AND* D700? The Nikon compatibility chart lists the lens, but I have no idea if the D700 body will accept the combo. Thanks.

A: I do not have a d700

Q: 3. Some stated that TC-14E III removes the choice of auto and 3d tracking in the focusing options on the camera. Does it still support AF-C which is my favorite for shooting bird? (D500, nikon 200-500)

A: AF-C will work. However, you must keep the subject centered or as close to the center of the frame as possible as that will be the only AF point functioning with the TC14III connected.

Q: 4. I just purchased a Nikon TC-14EIII Teleconverter F/AF-S to mount on my 80-400 f4.5/5.6 lens. I have a Nikon D7000. Even though the B&H website states the teleconverter is compatible with the D7000 and 80-400 lens it does not appear the teleconverter fits to then end of the 80-400. Can you help me?

A: If you have the AF version of the lens and not the newer AF-S lens, it would not be compatible with this teleconverter. None of Nikons current teleconverters are compatible with their AF lenses. If you do have the AF-S version, theres no reason the teleconverter shouldnt mount to the lens. In this case, the teleconverter might be defective. I would suggest contacting our Customer Service Department: Customer Service: 800.221.5743 or 212.239.7765 cs@a href= http://bhphotovideo.com target= _blank bhphotovideo.com/a

Q: 5. Is this teleconverter compatible with Nikkor 200-500?

A: It will mount , you will have AF limitation as you will lose a stop of light becomes F8 . Depending what camera you have you may or may not have AF

Q: 6. Has any one used this converter with Nikon D500 and Nikon 200-500mm ?How was the results?

A: I use it with the D500 and with both the Nikon 200-500mm and the 80-400mm. It works great on both with only 1 f-stop loss and no noticeable loss in sharpness. The 200-500mm is a little bit sharper than the 80-400mm but is 1.5 lbs heaver so I use it on a tripod with a gimbal head.

Q: 7. Nikon TC 14E III is this compatible for use with both a Nikon D810 and D750 using the Nikkor 200-500 F 5.6 lens and the Nikon 70-200 F2.8 E FL ED lens? Also, the User Manual shown is for the E II not the E III.

A: Yes, it is compatible with the both cameras and both lenses.

Q: 8. What is the reduction of the angle of view when used with a 70-200mm f/2.8 at 70mm shown in , , and ? Would it be the same for all lenses?

A: Google field of view calculator - Canon has a good one - plug in the new focal length and you can see the field of view, i.e., 200mm + 1.4 TC = 280mm (200 x 1.4 = 280).

Q: 9. compatible with nikon 70-300 vr zoom?

A: This extender didn't fit on my 70-300 Nikon lens. Nikon provides a list of compatible lenses

Q: 10. Is the Nikon AF-S Teleconverter TC-14E III compatible with Nikon D-750 and Nikon AF-S 200-500MM F/5.6E Ed VR Lens?

A: I use this teleconverter with a Nikon D810 and the 200-500mm lens to get an effective range of 700mm--all teleconverters work best if you can stop them down to f 11 or better, which depends on the lighting conditions. They are really pricey but they are cheaper than buying a 600mm lens. I have made sharp 20x30 prints with this combination.

[1 Stop] Because of the supply chain interruptions, I ordered in April 2021. After SIX months it B & H finally delivered. They were so good in notifying me each month that it was back ordered!! WELL WORTH THE WAIT. I shoot with a Nikon D610 and 200-500mm and this lens gives a whopping 700mm lens!!! I lose one stop of light and my F5.6 is always at F8 or smaller aperture. This is problematic ONLY in reduced light (expected). In adequate light it focuses fast and accurate with back button focusing. I was blown away with the sharpness of images hand held. Obviously, the closer the subject, the better, but it really pulls things in. I set on manual, auto iso, ss in accordance with the expected activity, check my histogram, adjust +/- exposure and shoot away! Couldn't be more pleased.

[Nikon F] I bought this teleconverter primarily to use with my 500mm F/5.6 PF but also with my 70-200mm F/2.8. I have a TC-17 and while I do occasionally use it, I've never been totally satisfied with the reduction in sharpness and slower focusing. The 500 PF is my sharpest Nikon lens and I didn't want to do anything to compromise it. With the TC-14 and the 500 PF on my Z9 I am seeing no reduction in sharpness or contrast. The AF might be a little slower, but not enough to matter. I get consistently sharp shots of birds in flight. I waited a year for B&H to get this teleconverter in stock and I can. honestly say it was worth the wait. The shot of the moon was hand held. The one of the Heron was also hand held, 15 shots at 20 fps, all except one in razor sharp focus.

[Nikon F] I have a Nikon D850 and Z9 and use the TC on both. Have used the TC on both cameras with my F mount lens, Nikon 200-500mm mostly for bird/eagle photos. TC is more clear on the Z9 for sure. Lost of shutter speed is noticeable, so really can only be used on stable subjects or really crank up the ISO. I knew this when I bought it, but it was worth the money to me. Will use this many years.

[Nikon F] This Nikon teleconverter works well with the most recent Nikon 70-200 lens. Just put it on and I'm good to go.

[1.4x] Bought to extend my new 300mm PF lens to 420mm. First tests; hand holding, of a Heron was impressively sharp. Really pleased with the results.

[Nikon F] Getting too close to a bird guarantees it will fly before you can get the shot so I'm super happy with this added onto my Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 300mm f/4E PF ED VR lens.

[1.4x] It does exactly what I wanted -- added reach with minimal sacrifice of sharpness.

[1.4x] I purchased the teleconverter to give my Nikkor 200mm-500mm f5.6 lens a bit more reach. I was eager to test Nikon's assertion that there was no degradation of the image which was not true of the teleconverters of many years ago. I made two images of a multifaceted object containing webbing, fabric, lettering and stitching. One exposure was with the teleconverter and the lens set at 200mm, the equivalent of 280mm and the second without the teleconverter with the lens set at 280mm thus producing images of the same size. Both images were taken at f8. The images were enlarged 350% and no discernible difference could be detected. For me giving up one stop for an extra 200mm on the long end was well worth it.

[1 Stop] Just started using it but so far is giving me the extra reach expected. Will be doing lots more experimenting.

[1 Stop] I am very pleased with the Nikon TC-14E III Teleconverter. I have used it with my Nikkor 300 f/4 PF and my 70-200 f/4 with great results the images have the same sharpness and contrast as these lenses used without the teleconverter. Highly recommended
