Will using the teleconverter affect the autofocus performance?

Using the teleconverter may slightly reduce autofocus speed and accuracy, especially in low light conditions, as it reduces the maximum aperture of the lens by one stop. However, it is designed to maintain the autofocus performance as closely as possible to the original lens.

Is the teleconverter weather-resistant, and can it be used in harsh conditions?

Yes, the teleconverter is weather-resistant (WR) and can be used in conjunction with weather-sealed cameras and lenses, allowing for operation in dust and moisture-rich environments.
