I would be very cautious about the 3100, 3200, 5100, and 5200 systems with certain lenses and converters. I know that when I bought my D7000 I chose it because it had greater backward and 3rd party compatibility. Best check with someone who used it with one of those bodies. Note: I was not at all happy with the Kenko 2.0 converter.

I see no reason to suspect that it would not work. I have a D7100 (crop sensor like your 3200) and it works perfectly. I've used this lens for night sky photographs and I am very pleased with the results.

Big issue on using teleconverters is lighting. if you don't have good lighting then no. also the speed of your focus has an impact in performance. slow autofocus and you camera will hunt. I ha d a sigma 70 - 300mm lens and it did ok. but my tamron is so much better. especially with teleconverters. one thing the keep in mind. your f factor with change with these.so an f4 be much higher. hence lighting issues.I have even stacked them with mixed results.I have a nikon D3100 with 2 nikon lens, 18-50mm and 50-200mm, and a tamron 70-300mmand 2 of these teleconverters.

Sorry, but it is not compatible with the lens. You generally need a 2.8 or larger (smaller number) aperature lens. You should go on the Nikon websiteand check the teleconverter compatibility chart before buying a teleconverter or lens to use with a teleconverter.

I used the 1.4X teleconverter with the Sigma 300 f. 2.8, for pentax. So I do not have experience on its use with the 18-250 Sigma lens. Any way I'm not very happy of it, there is huge decay in quality and in focus. I would not suggest to any friend of mine to buy it.

The answer is no. The TC converters that Nikon manufactures only work with their higher end lenses. You will actually damage the lens or camera body if you try to use one on that lens. I do not think it will work on the lens you are asking about. If you go to their web site Nikonusa.com and do a search for teleconverter compatibility table, you can see a detailed list of recommended teleconverters to lens combos.

I stupidly bought this teleconverter and it fits my Nikon D800 but will not attachj to my Sigma 170-500mm lens. It seems the lens elements on both ends protrude and will not allow a connection. It probably only attaches to lenses with an internal motor.

Yes it should work fine. I have the same setup on my D7100 and the results are great. Slightly more difficult to focus on small distant objects with the teleconverter attached.

The D3200 does not have a motor to drive the lens focusing system, and any lens that has AF-S means that it contains a motor drive to focus. Therefore yes it will work.

While it will probably physically attach the quality is certain to be awful. The superzooms simply do not have enough resolution to spare to attach a teleconverter and that f6.3 suddenly becomes f12.6 so your autofocus isn't going to work either. I tried it with the Nkkor 18-200 VR and a Nikon D200 and while technically it worked the results were worse than just cropping the image without the converter. In particular chromatic abberation was greatly exaggerated making the resulting images look like they'd been made with a ten dollar disposable camera (albeit with a very long lens).

This teleconverter is for Tamron lenses that you want to use on a Canon camera. I have a Tamron 18-270 lens and a Tamron 150-600 lens and both can be used with the teleconverter on my Canon T3i. Once you get beyond 150 mm, you may have to switch to manual because the AF may not work. But it works great and worth the $$.

I ordered Tamron 1.4x for my Nikon. I have not had any problems with the Teleconverter. But realize that I made sure it was for a Nikon not Canon.

There are no Nikon teleconverters compatible with the Nikkor 70-300mm 4-5.6 lens. You have to use the Sigma, Kenko or Tamron 1.4x teleconverters.

This Teleconverter lens won't work out of range. This Teleconverter up to 400mm or less than 400mm.

It will work fine with your teleconverter, but your max aperture will then be f/5.6....... with the 1.4 extender your max aperture will be f/4.0

While the teleconverter WILL work with the D3100, it will only work with a small selection of Nikon lenses and unfortunately the AF-S 55-300mm is not one of them. Nikon has a "Compatible With" tab on the product page for the TC-17E II which will give you a definitive list: http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Camera-Lenses/AF-S-Teleconverter-TC-17E-II.html
