"This telextender is a great buy, period! Kenko is owned by Hoya and the glass is Hoya glass, of course. I've been reluctant to buy a telextender because I was afraid that it would make lousy pictures, not good focus, etc.I get many compliments on my photography but I'll be the first to admit that many of the camera magazines go into more detail about performance and exceeds my interest in photography. When I hav..." Read Full Review »

"I'm still experimenting with this accessory. Based on some macro shots I've taken, it appears that there is little or no loss of IQ using this TC. Tele shots with a super-zoom are another matter but that may be attributable to softness in the main lens and the greater sensitivity to camera motion at long FLs--especially with the loss of an f-stop (with a lens that was slow to begin with.) For sure, AF becom..." Read Full Review »

Pros

Best Uses
"I use this with my 55-300 Pentax, which is a sharp lens. Attaching the Kenko robs me of considerable sharpness and speed (and if you begin with f 5.8 with the 55-300 racked out we're talking f 6.5 or something) BUT considering this gives me the equivalent of 675mm, it can be a good option on a bri …" Read Full Review »

Pros

Best Uses
"I use the converter with my Pentax K10D and Pentax-DA 1:4-5.6 50mm-200mm ED lense. Given enough light, autofocus works extremely well throughout the zoom range of the lens. Exposures are usally taken at ISO400 with single and continous autofocus and can produce good/excellent results. With lense fac …" Read Full Review »

Kenko 1.5x DG AF Tele-Converter for Pentax AF Review
Pros
Cons
Best Uses
"Used with the Tamron 70-300 zoom. Picture quality down-graded somewhat but still acceptable. The problem is the increasing purple fringe on the high contrast images have to be post processed heavyly with the photoshop. Also auto focus hunting too much. 4 stars for the price. "
