It is exceptional for a lens accessory to use one of the best glass materials, yet this is because SIGMA is seeking for the best image quality, and it is necessary to meet the new \"SGV\" standards. It is suitable for professional use since its durable construction is dust and splash-proof. It is compact and light, and provides easy extension of focal range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIncorporating SLD glass elements for better image quality\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTC-2001 incorporates 2 SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elemenst.

However, we've now developed our own proprietary MTF (modulation transfer function) measuring system (A1) using 46-megapixel Foveon direct image sensors. Even previously undetectable high-frequency details are now within the scope of our quality control inspections. The SIGMA TELE CONVERTER TC-1401 and TC-2001 will all be checked using this \"A1\" before they are shipped.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEase of use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA rubber part is attached to where it mounts with the original lens, and it prevents the devices from scratching each other.
