In addition to the Sigma 100-400mm f/5-6.3 DG DN OS Lens (for L-mount and E-mount), Sigma has also announced two new L-mount teleconverters: the TC-1411 (1.4x) and the TC-2011 (2x).
Sigma says these two teleconverters are ‘Designed to complement Sigma’s renowned optical formulas’ and feature a dust- and splash-proof design ‘comparable to that of the Sigma Sports line lenses.’
The TC-1411 (1.4x) and TC-2011 (2x) are currently available to pre-order for $400 (Adorama, B&H) and $430 (Adorama, B&H), respectively, and should ship on July 10 alongside the 100-400mm F5-6.3 lens.
The SIGMA TELE CONVERTER TC-1411 and TC-2011 are designed exclusively for use with SIGMA L-Mount lenses. Mounted between the lens and a camera body, the TC-1411 increases the focal length of the lens by 1.4x, and the TC-2011 by 2x.
The superior optical performance of the SIGMA Contemporary, Art and Sports lines of lenses is the result of efforts to achieve the highest levels of image quality. Newly developed specifically for mirrorless systems, the SIGMA TELE CONVERTERS TC-1411/TC-2011 uphold the optical performance of the original lens while extending the focal length. AF remains effective without being limited by the F-number.
The new teleconverters have a dust- and splash-proof construction comparable to that of the Sports lens line-up and can withstand harsh outdoor shooting environments when combined with a dust- and splash-proof camera and lens.
These lightweight and compact accessories are capable of providing an ultra-telephoto angle-of-view for telephoto and macro lenses, giving photographers a quick and portable way to achieve extra reach while still maintaining exceptional image quality.
