Lens compatibility is important when finding the right gear. Each camera brand uses its own type of lens mount, and many have several. The tables below show which lenses work with which cameras.

* - The lens and camera combination will have a 1.6x Crop factor

¹ - Using RF-S lenses with Full Frame EOS R bodies may have further limitations such as inaccessible AF modes or vignetting

APS-C - Crop Sensor

Full Frame - 35mm Sensor

* - Lens and camera combination will have a 1.5x crop factor

¹ - Compatible if camera body has an internal AF motor

² - Manual focus only

DX - Crop Sensor

FX - 35mm Sensor

* - Lens and camera combination will have a 1.5x crop factor

APS-C - Crop Sensor

Full Frame - 35mm Sensor

Sigma produces lenses for several major camera brands, such as Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, and others. As compatibility depends on the exact lens and mount combination, we suggest visiting Sigma’s official website to verify compatibility details.

Sigma provides clear compatibility tools and documentation to help you ensure your chosen lens fits your camera.

Tamron manufactures lenses for a wide range of camera brands and mounts, including Canon, Nikon, Sony, and others. Because compatibility can vary depending on the specific lens model and camera body, we recommend checking Tamron’s official website for the most accurate and up-to-date compatibility information.

A teleconverter (or extender) is an accessory that fits between your camera and lens to increase focal length, helping you get closer to distant subjects.

Common options include 1.4x, 1.7x, and 2.0x, which turn a 200mm lens into 280mm, 340mm, or 400mm respectively.

Teleconverters are typically compatible with telephoto or telephoto zoom lenses and may slightly reduce light and autofocus speed. For best results, always use a manufacturer-matched teleconverter (e.g. Canon with Canon, Nikon with Nikon) to maintain image quality and full functionality.

A crop factor describes how a camera’s sensor size affects the field of view when using a lens. Cameras with smaller sensors, like APS-C, capture a narrower portion of the image compared to full-frame sensors, effectively “cropping in”.

For example, a 50mm lens on an APS-C camera (with a 1.5× crop factor) gives a similar field of view to a 75mm lens on a full-frame camera (50 × 1.5 = 75).

This means the same lens can appear more “zoomed in” on a crop-sensor camera, even though the focal length doesn’t actually change.

The “FEE” error can be encountered when using older lenses with digital Nikon bodies, and usually means the lens’s aperture ring isn’t locked at its smallest aperture (the highest f-number, such as f/22).

To fix it, simply turn the aperture ring on the lens to the highest f-number and lock it in place (if there’s an orange lock switch). Once it’s locked, the camera will be able to control the aperture electronically, and the error should disappear.

Nikon AF-P lenses use a pulse (stepping) motor for smooth, quiet autofocus, but they only function with camera bodies that have a built-in focus motor. If your AF-P lens isn’t focusing or responding, it’s likely that your camera doesn’t support AF-P lenses.

Lens firmware updates are usually provided by the camera manufacturer and are installed through your camera body, not directly on the lens.

To update your lens firmware:

Once the update is complete, remove the memory card and restart your camera.
