Hi , At the moment I only have a 200mm lens on my 350d . I would like to have a longer lens , but I cannot afford it . So would a 2x convertor be any good . I know nothing about them and any help would be great as I am stuck on what to do.thanks

I thought about the 2X but loosing 2 stops is a bunch when you are hand holding in less than bright sunlight. The 1.4 only looses a stop and it's not that bad. I have taken a lot of pictures with the 1.4 and it seems to reach out and I can still shot at 100 iso and get some great shots no blur. At 400 iso I do seem to get a little more grain with the 1.4 than without. Just a thought.
