New Smaller Nikon TC-E3PF 3x Accessory Teleconverter

The new TC-E3PF teleconverter is smaller and lighter than Nikon's current TC-E3ED lens. In conventional telephoto converters, a lens with a pronounced convex shape is used to a greater degree, in order to refract the light received through the first element. This results in the desired reproduction ratio, however chromatic aberration can occur. In the event that a convex ED lens is used, such chromatic aberration is corrected, however the refractive limitations of such a lens make it difficult to reduce overall dimensions.

Based on the Phase Fresnel lens (pronounced Fray-nell) - a lens which appears to have a series of concentric circles engraved onto it and which has a jagged surface in cross section - the new TC-E3PF is made possible by fusing two such lenses together, and succeeds in correcting any chromatic aberration to the same high degree as an ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass lens while simultaneously achieving a reduction in overall body length. As a result, the lens is made smaller and becomes more convenient to carry.
