Q: will this (Nikon - AF-S Teleconverter TC-17E II 1.7x Extender Lens ) work on a 28-300 Nikon FX lens?

A: No. The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR is not compatible with teleconverters. To learn more about which lenses will work with teleconverters check out the following link: https://www.nikonimgsupport.com/ni/NI_article?lang=en_US&articleNo=000002347

Q: Will this work with a quant ray af ld 55-200 1:4-5.6 macro 53 on a nikon d80?

A: The Quantaray lens is not compatible with the Nikon - AF-S Teleconverter TC-17E II 1.7x Extender Lens.

Q: Can I use Nikon - AF-S Teleconverter TC-17E II 1.7x Extender with Nikon 70-200 F/4 lens?. I will use it with Nikon D850 and D750 camera bodies. My concern is Auto focus and sharpness of the image.

A: The Nikon AF-S Teleconverter TC-17E II 1.7x Extender will work and have autofocus capability with the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/4G ED VR lens so long as you are using that combination with a camera that offers f/8 support, like the Nikon D850 or the Nikon D750. This lens and teleconverter will provide sharp and beautiful images even at the furthest telephoto distance when used with the D850 or D750 mentioned here. To learn more about teleconverter compatibility please contact Nikon Support.

Q: Will this work with Nikon fx 70-200 F4 lens

A: The Nikon TC-17EII AF-S teleconverter (2151) can be used with the AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/4G ED VR Lens (2202), however the number of DSLRs that support autofocus with this combination is limited. Adding the TC-17EII to this lens reduces the amount of light transmitted through to the camera's sensor to the degree that some cameras will not be able to autofocus. Autofocus is available only with cameras that offer f/8 support. These include the D5, D500, D4/D4S, Df, D850, D810/D810A, D800/D800E, D750, D600/D610, D7100, D7200 and D7500. When this combination is used with other DSLRs only manual focus is available. For further assistance please contact Nikon Support at 1-800-NikonUS.

Q: Does this work with a D5600 and a 70-200 mm lens?

A: The teleconverter will work with the camera, but only with certain lenses. The rear element of the lens must be recessed so the converter will mount properly.

Q: How does this perform (compatibility, image quality, etc.) with (1) 50mm f/1.8G, (2) 85mm f/1.8G, (3) 24-70mm f/2.8G, (4) 35mm f/1.8G DX (I think I know the answer on this one, just throwing it out in case someone knows better) on a Nikon D7000 body?

A: The Nikon AF-S Teleconverter TC-17E II is not compatible with any of these lenses; 50mm f/1.8G, 85mm f/1.8G, 24-70mm f/2.8G or 35mm f/1.8G DX. Generally, wide angle lenses or wide angle zoom lenses cannot be used with teleconverters. In addition, lenses with relatively slow maximum apertures (slower than f/2.8) also cannot be used with a teleconverter.

Q: will this work with a d3200 and a af-s 55 300 Nikon lens

A: No, the AF-S NIKKOR 55-300mm lens is a DX format lense. Because of their construction, DX format lenses are not compatible with teleconverters.
