Used teleconverter

[lodbrok]

Hi Anybody who knows what causes these lines when I use my pre-owned 1,4 teleconverter? And can it be fixed? I use it with my 200-600mm G lense. Maybee the previous owner dropped it and it has a mailfunction since that?

That is odd. Is it a Sony teleconverter, or another brand?

That looks like one of the elements is out of line, I'm surprised it's working. I would reckon fixing it would be expensive. I'd return it.

Yeah It's sony's

I will contact the seller in Japan via E-bay and see what he has to say..

That really stinks; very bad customer service. The price you paid also seems very high for a used teleconverter - I mean it is almost as much as a new one.

Contact Ebay, they will rule in your favour, especially if the item has a warranty of some kind.

Yeah! In my country Norway the TC cost around 750 euro. Almost the same in dollar for us since the norwegian currency is weak against dollar.

Yeah I will do that.
