4. Awọn Itọsọna isẹ

When using the Kenko TELEPLUS HD pro teleconverter, consider the following operational aspects:

• Autofocus (AF) Functionality: AF works reliably with master lenses that have an open F-value brighter than F3.5. If the master lens's open F-value is F3.5 or darker, manual focus (MF) is recommended for accurate focusing.
• Iṣakoso Ifihan: The camera's TTL-AE (Through-The-Lens Automatic Exposure) and open metering systems will function as usual. However, due to certain camera and lens combinations, there may be a tendency for overexposure. It is advisable to review captured images and apply negative exposure compensation if necessary.
• EXIF Data: The teleconverter ensures that the EXIF information recorded in your image data reflects the actual focal length and aperture after the 1.4x conversion.
