I hope that this was posted in the right place. I'm just wondering if I can use my Sigma 50mm f/1.4 ART work with Nikon AF-S Teleconverter TC-20E III?

The 50 Art's rear element moves back, almost protruding behind the rest of the bayonet as the lens focusses towards infinity, retracting towards MFD. I'm 99% certain that near infinity focus the rear element would foul against the front element of the TC (which is flush with the front face of the lens mount of the TC).

So, yeah I guess if you were going to only use the 50A near MFD and in manual focus it might possibly be done but I wouldn't risk it
