Re: Generic telextender?

My Kenko 1.4x DGX works with just about all of my lenses on my 700D.  The Canon 1.4x did not and neither would it play well with the 100-400 because of the camera.

Personally I wouldn't go 2x, just too much loss in aperture and auto-focus capability but I guess it depends on how you intend to use it.  As a footnote I don't find myself using it much as I seem to lose as much quality as I gain in reach unless the light is really good but then I want(ed) it for birding/wildlife.

The Canon shop refunded the Canon extender.
