Just got a Sony 1.4 TC to put on my Sony 200-600mm, not had a chance to test it yet as its been raining all week and today when its sunny I'm stuck indoors. I read good things about it and hoping its not like Nikon ones where some work and some won't micro af in.

It’s my observation that the key to getting TCs to perform optimally is very much down to best lighting. The loss of a stop is significant when the lighting is less than ideal. In retrospect I suspect all TCs are the same in this limitation, but with the Sony, despite the IQ being little affected with the TC, I’ve been aware that the tc/600mm combo quality is more reliant on lighting.

x1.4 works very well for me and the loss of a stop is not serious. Yes weather has kept my camera mostly out of use & since Christmas with a dose of Covid!

I have a KENKO 1.4 ,using on some shorter focal lengths incl. 24-70..35-70...70-200 f4.0..pcE 85 , not sure if I should look to the nikkor tc., but there is a 2nd hander for sale for reasonable money..how do you find focusing with it , is there noticable focus-lag ?

You can only fit the Nikkor TC14 E III to compatible lenses, specifically, it won't work with the 24-70, 35-70 or the PC E 85. It will work with the 70-200 f4. You can check compatibility here Nikon LCC .
