does this attach to a telephoto lens and double its distance? say from 200 mm to 400mm? thank you--

Yes, so you have to be sure that the diameter of the extender matches the diameter of the lens you're attaching it to. Check to be sure it is intended for the brand and size of your lens.If you're looking specifically at this Altura lens, be advised that you'll get what you pay for -- a cheap, optically inferior lens.

I bought mine just to use with the Nikon 80-400, works great but at a slight loss of aperture and slightly slower focus (which is always an issue with teleconverters). Not sure what the "new" Nikon 80-400 would be, had mine about 6 months.

As I understand it, the extender will certainly fit but it's best work does not happen on a telephoto zoom. It'll be much more satisfactory on a prime lens.

It should work (see- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nikon_F-mount_lenses_with_integrated_autofocus_motor#Telephoto_2)It is fairly heavy and long, and you should use a strap to ease the weight on your arms. I use it handheld with a D7000 and a D600

Almost certainly not. This teleconverter protrudes into the rear of of the attached lens and, in most cases, there is not enough space between the front of the converter and the back element of the lens. This converter is meant to work with very long telephoto lenses only. However, it does work - though not designed to do so - with the 80~200 mm (and newer 70~200 mm?) zoom lenses and the 105 mm macro lens. But generally speaking, this is a very long lens only accessory.

I used it with the Minolta 200mm f2.8 and was not very pleased with the quality of the image. I was hoping to be to gain the distance, but, it took away from what quality I loved in the lens so I decided to send it back.

Hi, I was not able to use this even on my Nikon. The distance between the lens and the adapter was too great to be functional. I ended up returning this item and buying a used bellows and slide copier on eBay. Hope this helps.

Yes, it does attach to the 1/4-20 screw. I would go for a 90mm to 100mm release plate for that size lens .... maybe even a 115mm.

yes it should, i believe that one is similar to my rebel xti and it will hold my 255mm telephoto lens. nice bad

I bought this for the Canon 70-200 f4 lens. If you can determine that the 400mm lens uses the same ring, it should fit. It fits my lens as if OEM. Very well made.

Yeah, you have to attach it to another lens. It should've come with a connector. I believe 50mm? Or 27, I can't remember exactly, I bought this product for my girlfriend.

I don't believe so. I know when I use a telephoto lens the case does not accommodate it.

I'm sure it will fit, but the string that attached the lens cap to the camera is too short for a telephoto lens. Additionally, the picture is a bit deceiving. The cap does not have the string on it. The string has a small "peel and stick" cap on it that you glue to the lens cap. The cap itself is Nikon OEM, so the cap is fine, but, as stated, the string is too short for a telephoto lens.

It attaches to a lens with an included adapter. The title of the product tells you which lenses it works with.

It should work on any telephoto lens. I use it on the 70-200. The 85 f/1.2 would need a 77-72mm step-down adapter to fit. I don't have that lens, but I have another that I use with a step-down adapter. Canon makes a different close-up lens for shorter lenses, the 250D. Either would work on the 85.

I do not think so. The bracket has a fixed height position which is somewhat optimized for lenses in the 200-400mm range. It also does not adjust backward enough to accommodate a shorter lens.

This product is an adapter that filts on the outside of the lens attaching to the lens just like a filter via the filter screw mount. It has a 62mm screw mount size which means it will fit on any lens that takes 62mm filters. I use mine on a Sony 18-200mm zoom which has a 62mm filter mount. The combination gives me a equivilent 60-660mm telephoto. It doesn't provide great quality (it isn't a $15000 Canon) but for a reasonable price it does let you play around with super zoom shots. This type of lens attachment works best when shooting in B&W. If you want to see some examples let me know.
