Nikon Ai-s Teleconverter TC-301 2X MF Tele converter Lens [Near MINT] (Pre-owned)

This Nikon Ai-s Teleconverter lens is in near mint condition, and comes with a carrying pouch for its protection. The Nikon TC-301 is a manual focus teleconverter designed to work with Nikon AI-s lenses. It doubles the focal length of compatible lenses, effectively turning, for example, a 50mm lens into a 100mm lens. It's particularly useful for photographers who need extra reach without having to invest in a longer lens. This lens offers several benefits that make it a valuable tool for photographers:

Increased Focal Length: The teleconverter effectively doubles the focal length of compatible lenses, allowing you to capture distant subjects with greater detail and magnification. This increased reach is particularly useful for wildlife photography, sports photography, and other situations where you need to bring distant subjects closer.

Compatibility: The TC-301 is designed to work seamlessly with Nikon AI-s lenses, ensuring compatibility and functionality. This makes it a convenient option for photographers who already own AI-s lenses and want to extend their focal length without investing in additional glass.

Optical Quality: While teleconverters can sometimes degrade image quality, the TC-301 is known for maintaining excellent optical quality, with minimal loss of sharpness and contrast. Nikon's reputation for producing high-quality optics ensures that images captured with the TC-301 retain clarity and detail.

Compact and Lightweight: The TC-301 is compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry in your camera bag and convenient to use in the field. Its portable design ensures that it won't add significant bulk or weight to your gear setup, allowing you to maintain mobility while shooting.

Versatility: The TC-301 extends the reach of your lenses without the need to swap them out, providing greater versatility and flexibility in your photography. This versatility allows you to adapt to changing shooting conditions and capture a wider range of subjects without having to carry multiple lenses.

Manual Focus Control: As a manual focus teleconverter, the TC-301 gives you precise control over focusing, allowing you to fine-tune your focus for each shot. While autofocus is not supported, manual focusing can be advantageous in certain shooting scenarios, especially when working with stationary subjects or when autofocus may struggle to lock onto the desired point of focus.
