The extender comes with a compatibility chart which essentially lists all of Canon's posher telephoto primes and zooms from 135mm f/2 up. Extenders also multiply the f-stop. The 135mm f/2 becomes a 270mm f/4, the 70-200mm f/4 becomes a 140-400mm f/8.
The 2x extender lost 6 f-stops with this configuration, the camera wouldn't go wider than f11 vs. f5.6 normally. Check other reviews and tech specs - I thought it wouldn't be as many f-stops so maybe this was something to do with the body I was using.
Hereβs a chart showing the Canon lenses that are compatible with the Yongnuo teleconverter: Like the recently launched Canon 50mm f/1.8 clone, Yongnuoβs version appears to have pretty decent
Type of extender: AF availability: EXTENDER EF 1.4x: When any of the extenders shown to the left are mounted on a lens with a maximum aperture darker than F4, AF cannot be used. EXTENDER EF 1.4x II: EXTENDER EF 1.4x III: EXTENDER EF 2x: When any of the extenders shown to the left are mounted on a lens with a maximum aperture darker than F2.8
Currently, this teleconverter can be picked up for around Β£275, which isnβt quite bargain-basement territory, but is still less expensive than Canonβs EF Extender 2x III, which costs Β£300
The Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM Lens is compatible with the Canon EF 1.4x III and EF 2x III Extenders. As is often the case, the focal length range of the with-extenders combinations is quite impressive with relatively little increase in size and weight.
