Sigma 1.4x TC problem

Joe T · 26 Jan 2008 at 16:44

I have a Sigma 1.4x TC which I sometimes use with my 120-300 2.8 and 200 f4 AIS. However, I dont think it is mounting correctly, as there is some 'play' in the coupling. This is obviously not good, as it makes it harder to hold the lens steady.

Anyone have any thoughts or ideas before I either buy another one or send this one to Sigma and see what they think?

Thanks

there should be no play a total tight fit, i would stop using it and get it looked at you dont wanna short any poss lens/body damage as a result.

firm tight fit is how it should be.

Problem sorted due to advice on another forum. Screws needed tightening!
