Thank you for purchasing your new AF-S Teleconverter.
Nikon AF-S Teleconverters TC-14E II, TC-17E II and TC-20E II are precision optical accessories, mounted
between the camera body and lens. The TC-14E II provides a 1.4X increase in the prime lens' effective
focal length with a one f/stop loss in effective aperture, and the TC-17E II provides a 1.7X increase in the
prime lens' effective focal length with a one and half f/stop loss in effective aperture, whereas the TC-20E
II doubles the prime lens' effective focal length with a two f/stop loss in effective aperture.
Because your AF-S Teleconverter has CPU contacts, you can take advantage of features such as metering
system, exposure mode, etc.
Before using your new teleconverter, carefully read the following instructions so you get the most out of
your teleconverter now and for years to come.
Usable lenses
Nikon AF-S Teleconverters are designed exclusively for use with AF-S and AF-I Nikkor lenses.
• Following lenses cannot be used with the AF-S Teleconverters TC-14E II/TC-17E II/TC-20E II (The rear
elements of the lens will touch and may damage the elements in the teleconverter.):
AF-S DX 12-24mm f/4G IF-ED AF-S 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G IF-ED
AF-S 17-35mm f/2.8D IF-ED AF-S VR 24-120mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED
AF-S DX 17-55mm f/2.8G IF-ED AF-S 28-70mm f/2.8D IF-ED
AF-S DX 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED AF-S DX 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED
AF-S DX 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G IF-ED
• Autofocus cannot be used with the AF-S Teleconverter TC-17E II and TC-20E II attached with the
following lenses:
AF-S VR 200-400mm f/4G IF-ED AF-S 600mm f/4D II IF-ED
AF-S 300mm f/4D IF-ED AF-S 600mm f/4D IF-ED
AF-S 500mm f/4D II IF-ED AF-I 500mm f/4D IF-ED
AF-S 500mm f/4D IF-ED AF-I 600mm f/4D IF-ED
• Vibration Reduction function can be used with the VR (Vibratioin Reduction) lens used with the F6, F5,
F100, F80-series/N80-series*, F75-series/N75-series*, F65-series/N65-series*, D2-series, D1-series,
D100, D70-series or D50 camera body.
• When the AF-S Teleconverter TC-17E II attached with the AF-S 300mm f/2.8D IF-ED or AF-S 400mm
f/2.8D IF-ED is used with the F6, F5, F100, D2-series, D1-series, D100, D70-series or D50 camera body,
focal length of the shooting data is not displayed correctly (it is displayed correctly with the AF-S
300mm f/2.8D II IF-ED and AF-S 400mm f/2.8D II IF-ED).
* The Nikon N80-series, N75-series and N65-series are sold exclusively in the U.S.A.
Recommended focusing screens
Nikon offers a variety of interchangeable focusing screens for Nikon cameras, to suit any type of lens or
picture-taking situation. Those recommended for your teleconverter/lens combination are listed on the far
right side of this sheet.
Attaching to the lens
When removing the lens from the camera body to attach the teleconverter, make sure that the camera's
power is turned off and avoid direct sunlight.
Attach the teleconverter to the lens so that the teleconverter's lens mounting index is aligned with the
aperture index on the lens. Taking care not to press the lens release tab, turn the teleconverter
counterclockwise (with the lens facing away from you) until it clicks into place.
To remove: Slide back the teleconverter's lens release tab gzand turn the teleconverter clockwise (with
the lens facing away from you).
Attaching teleconverter to camera body
Make sure that the camera's power is turned off and avoid direct sunlight.
Attach the camera to the lens/teleconverter assembly so that the camera's mounting index is aligned with
the teleconverter-camera index on the teleconverter. Taking care not to press the camera's lens release
button, turn the camera body counterclockwise (with the camera body facing away from you) until it
clicks into place.
• If your camera has a lift-up meter coupling lever, make sure that the meter coupling lever is correctly
positioned. (For details, see your camera instruction manual.)
To remove: While pressing the lens release button on the camera body, turn the camera body clockwise
(with the camera body facing away from you).
Determining exposure
Using a teleconverter decreases the effective aperture by one f/stop with the TC-14E II, by one and a half
f/stop with the TC-17E II or by two f/stops with the TC-20E II.
• With AI-type cameras with/without CPU contacts: Determine exposure in the same manner as using the
prime lens only. (However, exposure cannot be determined with the G-type lens.)
• With non-AI-type cameras: Perform stop-down method. (However, exposure cannot be determined with
the G-type lens.)
• See your camera instruction manual for available exposure modes and metering systems.

*5 The Nikon N2020 is sold exclusively in the U.S.A. and Canadian markets.
Teleconverter care
• Although you should always keep the teleconverter's lens surfaces clean, rough cleaning must be
avoided. Wipe with a soft, clean cotton cloth moistened with alcohol to remove grease or fingerprints
from the lens surfaces.
• Be careful not to soil or scratch the teleconverter's lens surface.
• Keep both front and rear lens caps in place when you are not using the teleconverter.
• If you do not intend to use the teleconverter for a long time, protect it from rust and mold by storing it
in a cool, dry place. Also, do not store it in direct sunlight, and keep it away from naphthalene or
camphor.
• Be careful not to get the teleconverter wet or drop it in water. Water may cause it to malfunction.
