Product Overview

Sony FE 2x Teleconverter extends the focal length of compatible telephoto lenses by 2 times, trading in 3/4 (2 stops) of light transmission. It covers the full-frame image circle. Introduced by Sony in 2016, it has 8 elements in 5 groups.
Currently, only a small number of full-frame lenses, usually in the G Master lineup are compatible with it. They include (non-exhaustive):
  • FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM OSS
  • FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM OSS II
  • FE 100-400mm F4.5-5.6 GM OSS
  • FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS

Sony also markets a 1.4x teleconverter for those who have different tradeoff considerations.
