I have a Nikon 3100 and a Sigma 70-300mm apo dg lens. Will this tele-converter work with those?

Rocky ... Good news! while I can't answer with certainty, the Sigma web site has a table for all their lenses including the 2X teleconverter and it's compatibility with your Sigma 70-300mm apo dg lens. I can also highly recommend calling and talking to a Sigma representative.

I don't see why it would not work with your lens. My lens is a 70-200 mm. So with the Teleconverter on it, it extends out to 300 mm. So I want to say yes in your case. Good Luck!!!!

I bought this lense and it works fine with my D3100 so as long as the connection ring betweeen your and my camera is the same it will be compatible.

It should work with the D3100 as well as the adapter fits onto the hotshoe and sends the signal to the strobes. I've used it with the d80 and the D3000 without any problems.I hope that helps you!

The Sigma 2x ex dg apo tele-converter is a higher quality tele-converter than the Vivitar 2X7N. Of course that comes with a higher price tag. The optical quality of the Vivitar is average, but is good enough for what I was looking for. For the additional $100.00, I would expect the Sigma to be at least above average. However, unless you want to spend $500.00 plus for a Nikon tele-converter, you will not get great photos with any inexpensive tele-converter.

I don't think you will even be able to mount that lens. Nikon has a compatibility chart on their website. This teleconverter will only mount on certain lenses.

I have a Nikon D5200. I looked at the specs on your camera and it looks as if the 2x7n should work. Keep in mind that a teleconverter is what it is and don't expect it to take the place of a 400mm lens if you couple it with a 200mm. Yeah it will work but your camera will be limited. I am not sorry I bought one and pretty much knew the limitation beforehand. With decent light and a tripod to steady the camera it does pretty good with my 55-200mm lens.

Jeff...This teleconverter works with my 7D however before I ordered I researched the product and made sure it was compatible. I have both the 28 x 135 & 70 x 300 lenses made by canon and it works on both. Hope this helps...

Hi, no I do not believe it will. I found out the hard way that Nikon for some reason does not note that the converter works with only select high end Nikon lenses. Now the Tamron converter will work with all lenses and I have found it works great. Testing both lenses, autofocus is slower on the converters equally and you loose two F stops. Nikon's website has the manual for the converter or you can google it as a PDF file to see the lenses it works with.

I stupidly bought this teleconverter and it fits my Nikon D800 but will not attachj to my Sigma 170-500mm lens. It seems the lens elements on both ends protrude and will not allow a connection. It probably only attaches to lenses with an internal motor.

It will take the DX lens. There are other types that you can use. I had a dx40 with the lens you mentioned and it works well with the 3100.

I can not answer the Question for this lens. My converter did not work for me.I have the D80 an theD90 with multiple Lens.

None of the Nikon teleconverters mount on Sigma lenses. (https://photographylife.com/reviews/sigma-2-0x-teleconverter), all the best,

It works with my d3000... So I am assuming it will definitely work with the 3100. I primarily use it on my D7100.

I read somewhere it does NOT work. I would not recommend this combination anyway fr quality reasons. It is a bad idea to use a converter for a wide-to.tele-zoom. Teleconverters are best for fast lenses (2.0...4.0) and longer focal lenghts (fixed or fast pro telezooms).

I can not say, with any certainty. However, the Sigma teleconverters are half the price of Nikon's but they do not play well with Nikon lenses.
