Kenko Teleplus HD DGX 2.0X Teleconverter For Canon Mount
Placed between the camera body and lens, a teleconverter contains a set of optics that will effectively increase the focal length of any lens with which it is used. The Kenko Teleplus HD DGX 2.0x converter has the effect of multiplying the focal length of your lens by 2.0x, turning a 300mm lens into an equivalent 600mm.The HD DGX 2.0x converters have genuine Gate Array IC (Integrated Circuitry). This means the converter's unique circuitry maintains signal integrity between the camera body and lens. The 3~5-element design made with high quality multi-coated optical glass supplied by Hoya Corporation, the world's largest manufacturer of optical glass.Full AF operation with the Teleplus HD DGX 2.0x is possible using a camera lens with an open aperture of F2.8 or brighter. Please be aware that AF will work properly only if there is enough light and contrast on the subject to activate the camera's AF sensors properly. (Manual focusing may be necessary when using lenses with smaller open f-stop values than that given above.) The Teleplus HD DGX converters have updated circuitry to record exif data more accurately. In the exif exposure data (meta-data recorded with a digital picture) Teleplus HD DGX converters record the equivalent aperture and focal length of the lens setting plus teleconverter. Optically and mechanically they are identical to the prior high-quality Teleplus HD DGX converters.

I have another teleconverter that does not modify the exim data. This one does. That means when you put it on it will add to your aperture automatically. That is the down side.I use it with an EFS 50-250mm f4-5.8. That means minimum aperture will be f/8-11.That being said, I am so glad I have this! The power to double to my longest zoom is priceless. And I can only do that because this allows me to use EFS lenses. This is the only teleconverter I know that can do that. I considered putting only 3 stars, but sorry! You just have to pay for that advantage. The AF also doesn't work at very long ranges. I may not trust it that far out anyway. I even couple it with another 2x and took some very clear shot of the moon.In the end, yes! This is a very vital part of my ... MoreI have another teleconverter that does not modify the exim data.

This teleconverter is perfect if you want an extra reach for occasional shootings with a telephoto lens without spend a lot of money on a dedicated lens. Also, will save you from carry a bulk and heavy extra lens in your bag. I use it with a Canon T5i and a EF-S 55-250mm STM lens. The autofocus does not work properly when shooting through the viewfinder but, for me, worked fine in live view mode. I was able to make a very sharp and detailed shot of the moon using this setup and a tripod. Just one minor issue I noticed is that when using live view the exif data in the photo does not show the lens + teleconverter equivalent focal length.

I was excited to find a teleconverter that fit my Canon T6i and after reading the other reviews posted here I knew what to expect from the DXG 2. As an amateur photographer, I was looking for a good quality teleconverter that was reasonably priced. After speaking with the very professional B&H team, I placed the order and received the DXG 2 within days. The instruction guide states that the auto focus may not work in all light conditions, just as most reviews have pointed out so it should not come as a surprise. Well during a mid afternoon shoot, it worked great, auto focus too! I am very happy with the purchase!Thank you B&H!

I bought it because in the advertising it said that the auto focus was not lost but it is false. My advice: if you're willing to manually focus, buy it. If you require autofocus DO NOT BUY IT! My camera is a Canon EOS Rebel SL3 DSLR Camera with 18-55mm Lens (White)
Two main issues:Camera on startup will sometimes say that there was communication issue with lens. And only option is to switch it off. The only trick is to turn on camera and go immediately to live view or options. Then it continues. It works in live view. In normal mode, it will stop functioning after a second.Optically it is meh. Chromatic aberration is visible, contrast is significantly lower, and sharpness in corners is lost.It is rather simpler and cheaper design. Canon or Tamron newest teleconverters provide better performance. They cost more and weight more, but do better job,
I bought this tele-converter because I sometimes want a 500 mm focal length but am not willing to pay $9,000 for a Canon lens. There are not many converters for EF-S lenses and Kenko is a reliable name (I also own their extension tubes, and according to Wikipedia Kenko makes lenses under the Tokina name).I used this converter with a Canon 760D and a 55-250 mm lens set at 250mm. The camera displays (and stores in the photos) the correct information: 500 mm (250mm x 2) and f/11 (5.6 x 2), and the images are quite acceptable. However, to get reasonable results, I must use this procedure:1. Set the lens to manual focus (since the final f-stop is over 8.0, the autofocus will hunt for focus forever.2. Set Exposure Compensation to -2.0 stops (or the auto-exposure ... MoreI bought this tele-converter because I sometimes want a 500 mm focal length but am not willing to pay $9,000 for a Canon lens.

Set Exposure Compensation to -2.0 stops (or the auto-exposure will yield extremely washed-out photos) with ? brackets.3. Set the Drive Mode to Continuous.I then focus manually (not so difficult because I was focusing manually 1978-2008...) and press the release to expose 3 frames. Depending on the light, one of them will expose correctly.If the lens is set at 55mm and f/4 (converted to 110mm and f/8), then both auto-focus and auto-exposure work fine (manual focusing and exposure compensation are not needed) — but I don’t need the converter to get 110mm focal length...The results may be just about be worth the trouble. But once you set it up, you probably want to stay with it for a while, and not switch back and forth between this setup and “normal mode”.BTW, I complained about the 2.0 stop overexposure and B&H consulted with Kenko and decided that I should get a replacement. Awfully nice, except that the new converter performed identically. Nonetheless, I decided to keep it.
I put off buying one of these for ages because of the mixed reviews about teleconverters. The canon teleconverters don't work with anything but the L series lenses, this one is pretty well made, metal, not plastic and does work with many Canon EF AND EF-S lenses. It works with my two which are the standard Canon EF-S 18-55 IS STM lens, and the Canon EF 70-300 IS USM lens, as well as with a 150mm APO MACRO DG HSM lens. You can also find a compatibility chart on Kenko's website which gives more details of many Canon lenses.Focussing at the far extreme is fiddly and it has to be manual below f8 (but most cameras find focussing below f8 difficult). I compared the Sigma, with the converter at 300mm, and the Canon 300mm without, (so same focal length) and there wasn't ...

I compared the Sigma, with the converter at 300mm, and the Canon 300mm without, (so same focal length) and there wasn't much difference in the picture quality.I took shots of the moon with the Canon 70-300, both with the teleconverter and without, (Camera is EOS 70D) and blew up the 'without' picture to show the moon at the same size (see pics - I know neither shot is all that great - slightly different exposures but I have deliberately not tampered with them). I'm not sure where this leaves me - the standard 70 - 300 lens does get very good reviews but I'm not sure that the teleconverter makes for better shots than just enlarging the photo afterwards. May be a different story in bright light, so I'm not sorry I got it.That said - on the Sigma APO Macro lens, it turns a 150 macro into a 300 macro, massively enlarging the size of the image, it can already do 1:1 but this is close on double that.
I received the teleconverter today. I ordered it only two days ago. That's fast service. I am very pleased with B&H & the teleconverter. I am using it on a Canon T3i with an EF-S lens. I sometimes need to use manual focus. This was stated in the earlier reviews. I'm happy with my purchase.
After reading the reviews, I expected to manually focus my 55-250 Canon lens on my 70D camera. I thought it was worth it for the extra focal length on wildlife shots. The Kenko TELEPLUS HD DGX 2X worked flawlessly, even on a cloudy day with limited light. I'm a happy guy!
I was actually very surprised by this lens. The quality on optic is incredible. Some of my pics look even better with this extender attached then without it. Haven't been able to figure that one out but I don't care. I connected it to my Cannon 55-250 stm lens and a Samyang 100mm macro. Both gave incredible details with this extender. The details on the macro was unreal. I only expected to use this to extend my telescopic lens to 500 but now I have a whole other world in macro thanks to this lens. Just keep in mind you will need to focus manually and in my experience, dropping the aperture by 2 gave me more detailed photos. Would definitely buy again.
