Consumer review (newegg.com)

Does what it says

 

It bumped my f/2.8 to a max f/5.6 when added, but that was expected. As other reviewers stated, check the sigma specs on this to see exactly which lenses it will work with! And be prepared for a massive looking camera - I thought it looked mean with a...

Turn your 70-200L into a 140-400, with a little quality loss and a few stops of light. Autofocus still worked for me

Out of my four Canon lenses (Canon 7D kit lens, Canon 10-22mm, Sigma 50mm f/1.4, Canon 70-200 2.8L) it only works with the 70-200L. You can tell it's really MADE for that lens if you look at the mounts closely. It's not that it doesn't "work" with the...

WARNING ON AUTOFOCUS -READ SPECS

 

Users need to be responsible for what they buy. I have all but tossed out Sigma lenses, but others, not so. Pay attention to what you buy. Don't accept myth an don't assume too much. Saying something has AF doesn't mean it will AF with this or that --...

Read the specs ; I've had good Sigma gear and passable. Here's the deal. Read specs ; I've done well with this one, but I paid attention to the specs ; Canon tells you in specs that lenses won't autofocus at less than f/5.6. This lens with a 2x is...

None, except, see pros. Not a con per se, but the best of the extenders are aimed at specific lenses and their optical designs. There's nothing wrong with general telex tenders, but the more lenses they handle, the less they're designed for one lenses...

Great product in the right hands.

 

Love the way it attaches to the lens. You do need to understand that using this converter takes two F-stops off the max aperture. A user who does not appreciate this could be disappointed with an apparently poor result. However, when used in bright...

Good results but dont pixel peep

 

I use this with a sigma 70-200 mm f2.8 lens which by itself is super sharp. The reach with the 2x tc is welcome but there is some inevitable loss of ultimate sharpness with the teleconverter. Some tweaks in light room work wonders. OK a £6000 prime...
