Is the K T6-2X converter as good as the A 2X-S converter with
these two
lenses?
I have used both TC's with a number of telephotos (including the F*
300/4.5, but not including the A* 135/1.8 - I usually only use a TC
with
longer lenses), and I have never noticed any significant
difference. The
T6-2x is more compact (shorter), but the A 2X-S has those electrical
contacts (might be more useful on the newer bodies), so it's pretty
much a
toss-up for me.
I have the A2X-S converter. It is a joy to use with A, F, FA and DA
lenses (although I don't have any DA lenses I'd use on it) on the
*ist DS because you get all the metering modes.
