Why do you need to tape pins with the DGX?

I misread and thought you were saying things regarding the whole f/8 and needing to tape pins to prevent the TC from reporting to try and force the camera to AF.

What it boils down to is that almost any new Kenko TC being sold, either Pro or MC4, is reporting so "tape pins apply" if you're at f/8 on a camera that automatically shuts down AF at f/8.
