i believe the tamron SP 1.4 is the same item as the kenko 300 pro 1.4 that i recommended... it should be very good for the price

Hi IAMAI,

I'd check each TC thoroughly before committing. Like the Tamrons, there are many different versions of the Kenko 1.4x pro 300, and each one autofocuses differently. For instance the "blue dot" version behaved differently than the "green dot" when used with the 70-300L. One worked and one didn't.

It really has to be tried out in person with the specific camera and lens combo (or find someone online who has shot with the exact same equipment). Only way to be sure.
