Can I use a 1.4x teleconverter with this setup without having to purchase port extension? If not what port extension will I need?
Thank you in advance!
Hello everyone,
I currently have the following.
Nikon D300s
Nikkor 105mm
Nauticam NA-300s
Nauticam Port 50
Can I use a 1.4x teleconverter with this setup without having to purchase port extension? If not what port extension will I need?
Thank you in advance!
I believe you will need 20cm of extension (assuming the port you mention is the "Compact Port 50") (and assuming you are talking about a teleconverter with about the same dimensions as the Kenko 1.4). You could use either an "Extension Ring 20 with Lock" or a "Compact Port Extension 20". Note that if you have a manual focus ring, it won't work with the TC attached.
Cheers,
Cp

Thanks Cp very helpful! Any benefit for one or the other? Notice a bit of a price difference between the two.

The Extension Ring 20 would be useful for other port combinations (example: 8.5" dome and Tokina 10-17mm). The Compact Extension is a tiny bit lighter (good for travel) and cheaper (good for wallet), but would be mostly useful for this one purpose only and is a little more of a pain to swap out.

You sold me when you mentioned the 10-17 my next lens. Thanks again.
