Teleconverters

These accessories multiply the effective focal length of an attached lens by a factor. For example, a 200mm lens with a 1.4x teleconverter has an effective focal length of 280mm: with the 2x teleconverter, this increases to 400mm. Not all lenses will retain auto focus with a teleconverter attached and you will loose 1-2 stops of light depending on which teleconverter is being used.

Canon Teleconverters          These Canon teleconverters connect between the SLR body and lens and increase the focal length of your Canon lens by either 1.4 or 2 times depending on the converter model being used. These converters are only compatible with Canon L series lenses. A stop or two of light is lost when using a teleconverter.
