I have just purchased a Canon EF 2x III Extender to use with a Canon EOS 1DX Mk II and a Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L IS II USM Lens, which I believe should both be compatible. The lens and camera work perfectly without the extender added. However when I add the extender and then look in the viewfinder, all you can see is a circular image (which moves
Sticking a 400mm lens on an EF 1.4x Extender and adding an APS-C (1.61x) camera to it will give you an astounding 900mm+ lens at a fraction of the cost of anything in a similar range.

If itβs on a tripod and IS is on it will blur the picture. I know itβs common practice to turn IS off when on a tripod but this is the first time I
