Yes | Total Spent: None indicated| Rating: 9    Pros: Makes my 400 F2.8 into a 800mm lens Cons: I tried 3 different examples before finding one that worked well with my lens Works well with 400 F2.8 IS though I had to try out 3 different examples of the convertor to get one to work well with my lens. Well worth the effort though since I now have a 800mm f5.6 IS lens which gives great results. and whem stacked with a 1.4X convertor the results at 1120mm F8, ain't shabby either:-)) > Thoughroughly recommended. > Forget using this 2x convertor with an 'L' zoom though the results are abysmal, this convertor really demands a top lens for it to work properly - NO zoom can meet this requirement. hitendra Registered: February 2007 Posts: 11 Canon 2X Extender EF II review by hitendra Review Date: 3/7/2007 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Total Spent: $299.00| Rating: 9    Pros: Build & Image quality Cons: None Since the day one its been attached to the 300/2.8L IS & I am completely satisfied.

Yes | Total Spent: $250.00| Rating: 7    Pros: well built, nice way to get extra length when traveling Cons: image degradation Obvious impact on image quality on multi-element lenses like the 70-200 2.8 is, but probably not as big an issue with the super teles. Still it does give you much more reach at a modest cost, so you will probably have a love-hate relationship with it! ddesimoni Registered: November 2006 Posts: 12 Canon 2X Extender EF II review by ddesimoni Review Date: 11/18/2006 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Total Spent: None indicated| Rating: 6    Pros: better then enlarging in PS Cons: image distortion bought and sold this one within a few months. Didn't care for the quality, I compared shoots to enlarging in Photoshop and it does minimally better but not by much
