Hi everyone,
Anyone with Nikon teleconverter experience please give me some advice so I can be the expert for a buddy. His wife and daughter share using a Nikon D5100 with two kit lenses, 18-55 and 55-200. The daughter wants to shoot the moon (no pun intended) better than she can with just the 55-200 lens by itself on a tripod and asked Dad (my buddy) what he thought she could do. Their family is NOT a photographer family. This camera kit is a major kit in their eyes. So there's no way a big fast Nikon lens is even on the radar. I suggested a 1.4 TC but before I send him the specific TC he should get, I figured I would get some opinions from ACTUAL NIKON SHOOTERS first.
So the question is: which TC would you suggest for this little entry level Nikon kit with basic Af-S lenses? I assume with this type of user and existing camera gear a Kenko is the best way to go but I don't really know Nikon that well. (Assuming that even matters in this case.) Thanks guys!
