Is it compatible with Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art?
Asked by: Ehud
No, the Panasonic DMW-STC20 Lumix S 2x Teleconverter is not compatible with the Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Lens for Leica L. For the Sigma lens you would need the Sigma TC-2011 2x Teleconverter for Leica L, BH #SITC2011 (https://bhpho.to/3F6JGFv).

I read it only works with 70-200 mm panasonic lens but the 24-70 is the same size 80mm? Will it not work with that lens?
Asked by: Thomas
Teleconverters are typically only compatible with tele zoom lenses and not wide to medium zooms. In addition the converter will not seat into the rear of the 24-70mm lens due to the rear lens element.

Since you loose 2 f stops, using on the Panasonic ...

Since you loose 2 f stops, using on the Panasonic Lumix 70-200 F/4 is equivalent to f/11?
Asked by: Walter
That is incorrect. When using the Panasonic DMW-STC20 Lumix S 2x Teleconverter on the Panasonic Lumix S PRO 70-200mm f/4 O.I.S. Lens, the focal length of the lens is multiplied by 2x while the maximum aperture of the lens is reduced by two (2) f-stops. As such, using the Panasonic DMW-STC20 Lumix S 2x Teleconverter on the Panasonic Lumix S PRO 70-200mm f/4 O.I.S. Lens would make the lens the equivalent of a 140-400mm f/8 lens.

I see that many people have success with that TC on a Sigma 150-600mm. Is there a possibility that it also works with 100-400?
Asked by: Tauri
It is not listed as compatible. Only way to know is to try it out. Even if it works you may get other issues such as error messages. I wouldn't recommend it.
