There is NO extender 1.4x or 2.0x that will improve iq.

It only makes the image bigger.

There is a difference

I fell for that same trap.

It only makes the image bigger, which puts the images across more pixels. It's the more pixels that improve the image.

But that's only if the lens can resolve that detail in the first place. Put another way, a TC can help a lens put more detail of the desired subject onto the image if the lens can resolve more detail than the sensor can without a TC.

Ah of course makes sense. I think for me, at least personally it helps becuase I can see the small target a little better. Probably my age and eyesight 🙈
