An incredible bargain!

I bought this product at the recommendation of a fellow photographer specifically for use with the Canon 70-300L lens. Of course you need to be shooting with a Canon Series 1 body which will enable you to AF @f8 with this converter. I was initially skeptical that something this inexpensive could deliver quality images, especially since this lens is incompatible with Canon converters but I was dead wrong... this converter is a gem! I've gotten crisp, sharp images on the 70-300L with this converter

Some serious Vignette on the 100-400 L

I tried this tele-converter with my EOS 5D mark 2. Very reasonable results with the 24-105 L series lens and I got very good auto focus on the 100-400 L series lens, but at the full extent of the lens's magnification you get some serious vignette. Bad enough to make it unusable.

Kenko MC4 AF 1.4X DGX Specifications

About Kenko MC4 AF 1.4X DGX

Placed between the camera body and lens, a teleconverter contains a set of optics that will effectively increase the focal length of any lens with which it is used. The Kenko TelePlus MC4 AF 1.4x DGX converter has the effect of multiplying the focal length of your lens by 1.4x. The MC4 AF 1.4x DGX converter has genuine Gate Array IC (Integrated Circuitry). It means the converter's unique circuitry maintains signal integrity between the camera body and lens.

The 4-element design is made with high quality multi-coated optical glass supplied by Hoya Corporation, the world's largest manufacturer of optical glass. Full AF operation with the TelePlus MC4 AF 1.4x is possible using camera lenses with open apertures of F4 or brighter. AF will work properly only if there is enough light and contrast on the subject to activate the camera's AF sensors properly. (Manual focusing may be necessary when using lenses with smaller open f-stop values than that given above.)

The DGX TelePlus converters have updated circuitry to record exif data more accurately. In the exif exposure data (meta-data recorded with a digital picture) DGX converters record the equivalent aperture and focal length of the lens setting plus teleconverter. Optically and mechanically they are identical to the prior high-quality DG series converters.
