I didn't use this product because it did not work with my lenses. Nothing was great about it. Everything was not so great.

I have a 2.0 teleconverter and wanted a 1.4 that would work with autofocus. I am currently doing a lot of eagle photos. This works well for nest and perched photos, but not so well for flight photos. Still, I am satisfied with the product and its cost. I have seen other similar teleconverters for over 3 times the price that would not do much better.

It is a nice boost to my 50-500mm zoom I used for eagle photos. It is a bit to slow to autofocus for flight photos, but does good with perched photos. This teleconverter is a good value, compared to some I have seen that cost 4 times as much.

Took it to Yellowstone last Christmas and had just loads of problems. Totally unreliable through a very clean window. Outdoors, it focused accurately less than 25% of the time...and when it did it was brutally slow. Got a few good pictures of scenery, but forget the wildlife. For macro, warm, bright days it is as good as advertised. Would recommend only under those conditions, considering the price.

I haven't used this in a while, as I'd rather crop later than degrade the image by using a tele-converter on my zoom lenses. But it does work, and if you need the extra reach then this does deliver. It will NOT work on EF-S lenses, only on EF. So if you have a Canon 55-250 or other EF-S lens, it will NOT mount. There is no reason to give it a 1-Star review for this reason. My one minor complaint is that my copy makes a slight metallic noise when mounting it to my camera, so I'm afraid the mount is not perfectly identical to (not as smooth as) Canon's specifications, and I did receive occasional lens errors after using it, though those errors went away once I restarted the camera and have not returned since.

I only tried extender with 200mmL 2.8 on 1d MK II, just keeps searching and never focuses even in brightest outdoor day. Maybe i"ll play with other lenses before i throw it out. Or maybe this unit is just damaged.

I used during spring migration doing eagle photos.

I bought this tele-converter for use with my Canon T1I after reading generally positive reviews. A couple mentioned lens incompatability but not for standard lenses. [...] when I tried it, it fit fine to the camera body, but would not accept either of my Canon standard lenses (the kit lens 18-55 nor the 55-250 tele zoom).[...]

Works well with my Canon 80-200 f2.8 IF Lens

I love this converter. It has added greater range to my Canon 28-135mm lense. I can also use it with other lense I have which are several. If you have a mid range zoom and want to add greater distance w/o paying a king's ransom for a new lense this is your best choice.

The 1.4 teleconverter works great with the 75-300MM EF lense. The problem was that I wanted one to uswe with my 55-250MM EF-S IS lense. [...] I was very disappointed that I could not use my preferred lense.

I like it, but I dont extend my lens all the way out,and I find my photos are better and if doing long shots i find i need to tripod. Much cheaper than buying a 400 0r 800 lens

For the money this is an unbelievable buy. Using it with a Canon 28-300 IS it works seamlessly. I can't believe how great this.
