The Question:
from  Teleconverter at your Lowapro

Hi Rhonda Maurer,

Need your professional advise...

From the website at your lowapro you have Tamron 2x SP Pro Teleconverter, do you know this Teleconverter can use with my Tarmon 28-300MM A06 Lens or not ? How is the quality out from Camera when you use it. ( If possible can give me some picture using Teleconverter with maximum zoom )

Do you please share some experience about using Teleconverter for your Tamron (70~300MM), and what is the price you purchase.

I like to take wild picture, now with Tamron Lens (28~300mm), please to get one Teleconverter too.

Regards,

 Hi Nelson,
I am not familiar with the 28-300mm but the information on the lens states "for telephoto lenses 90mm & longer, with maximum apertures f2.8 and larger." Tamron's site would be the best place to check on your particular lens.
I have used the teleconverter very little just because I have not had the time. The few times that I have used it I really like it. I have to manually focus the camera with the teleconverter on and it really needs a lot of light. I would also highly recommend using a tripod when you are using the teleconverter.
I purchased mine at B&H Photo Video for $194.95. Here is a link at B&H for the teleconverter:

I have also included a link showing you two photos taken, one without the teleconverter and one with.

I hope that this information has been of some help. Please feel free to contact me anytime with any questions you might have and thank you for visiting my site.
