The Nikon TC-14E II AF-S provides a 1.4x increase in focal length. It is designed to be used with Nikkor AF-S and AF-I telephoto lenses. It's not intended to work with all AF-S lens, only the telephotos. Other lenses physically won't mount on it. With our inventory of lenses, this means that it only works with the Nikkor AF-S 105mm f/2.8G VR, the Nikkor AF-S 70-200mm f/2.8 ED VR, and the Nikkor 300mm AF-S f/4D ED. The aperture is reduced by one stop on all lenses. On the 105mm lens, the focal length becomes 147mm, the image is sharp, but the autofocus is not supported. On the 70-200mm lens, the focal length becomes 98-280mm, the autofocus and VR are fully functional and the image stays sharp. There may be a hint of softness at the extremes of 200mm and the aperture wide open at f/2.8, but the images are quite acceptable. On the 300mm lens, the focal length becomes 420mm. This teleconverter works great with the 300mm f/4. The image remains very sharp and autofocus is supported. The combination makes a light weight version of a 420mm lens.
