    Hmm the temptation. If nobody snaps it up I’ll be monitoring this closely (pending Nikon switch!)

    Just wondering why you are looking to sell it ?

    Was thinking of getting this for some wildlife photography as well.. have you used it with any TC and are they all manual based when they go on it

    thanks

    yes i am trying to sell it

    i have used it with the canon 1.4 teleconvertor, but then it becomes f8 which on my 40D means it wont autofocus

    with a 1d series camera it will still autofocus

    to be able to use a convertor you either need a 2.8 lens or a 1d camera

    with 40d you need at f4 or 2.8 lens to use the 1.4 convertor

    It is not true. You can use kenko x1.4 (excellent TC). There is a catch though. You have to isolate one or two of the pins on the lens. I’m a nikon user and I don’t remember the details but it is possible (ask Mr Google). Disadvantage is that AF will be quite slow.
