Yongnuo ef 2x extender

If you're looking for a 2x extender for your Canon EF lens at half the price of the Canon version, the Yongnuo clone is worth checking out. It worked great on my Canon 70-200 2.8 IS II, but I recently purchased a Tamron 150-600 so the extender isn't needed. I'm asking $179, with free shipping, and it's going for well over $200 online if you can find one that ships out of the U.S. I prefer PayPal, but other methods of payment can be negotiated. Reviews of this lens have been very good.

Steve, I had a similar issue with the Canon 1.4 and 2.0 extenders and the Tamron 150-600. I purchased the Kenko 1.4 abd 2.0 Pro 300 DGX models and they work very well. They also stack, which the Canon's would not do. If you are concerned with quality, look at my posts and Brucew29 posts under astrophotography, we both use a similar set-up and stack the 1.4 and 2.0.

I haven't tried it with the Tamron. I just felt once I got the 150-600 an extender for my 70-200 wasn't needed.
