Sigma 105mm macro

Joe T · 22-01-2006, 15:06

Hi all

I have the above lens, and I was wondering if anyone had tried this with either or both of the Sigma 1.4 and 2x teleconverters?

Should it work ok?

Thanks in advance.

Joe, might want to do a search on 150 macro , as I asked same question, which came back OK

IIRC the Sigma converter will work but the Canon converter definately does not fit at all..

I was thinking on the same lines Joe, I have both the 1.4X and the 2X Canon converters and no they won't fit.

If the Sigma converter does fit when you find out please post on here as I would be interested to know too.

Here's the post I mentioned above - Does a Sigma 150mm Macro work with 2x convertor ?

Ive heard from someone who has the 105 and the 1.4tc that it doesnt fit as the rear elelemt on the lens hits the element on the comverter.

Cheers anyway guys.

I wanted this for insect work. Looks like i will be saving fro the 180mm.
