Maybe the info on the macro's newer than the info on the TC. Their lens chart appears to split the difference, saying the 1.4x will fit but only with MF. Try before you buy, then buy the very one you tried! Jon

I am surprised to hear that the 150mm Macro will not? Can you clarify? I can clarify CDS that both my 1.4X and my 2X Canon both Mk2 converters will not physically fit this Sigma lens.
