Sigma expands its teleconverter line to include L-mount, and despite a lack of compatibility, its new optic design claims "superior optical performance."

Sigma managed to avoid the sharpness issues with its TC-1401 1.4x and TC-2001 2x teleconverters that are currently available for Sigma A, Nikon F, and Canon EF. The company aims to continue the tradition with two new teleconverters for L-mount. The Sigma TC-1411 and TC-2011 are designed for Sigma mirrorless lenses and are to be mounted between the lens and the camera body. Like their counterparts, the TC-1411 magnifies the focal length of the camera by 1.4x, and the TC-2011 by 2x. However, optically, they are different.
