If I hook the Kenko 1.4 onto the 70-200 f4 and then put the Tamron 2x on as well it will autofocus  f11 minimum though so it hunts a bit  Found some pics of the Sigma and Canon 1.4xTC's From thos pics the sigma does not protrude any where near as much as the canon. Here is a quick snap with my Sony digicam (Man look at that CA!)
it still protrudes inside the mount of the lens and on many lenses (such as the Sigma 24-70) the rear lens element will hit the front of the TC, which you don't want to happen!

Get the 17-55 and forget the camera upgrade for now. Unless you're doing wedding or commercial 4 is irrelevant. But 30Ds are black, and we all know black cameras take better pictures!

Glam was only $20 cheaper, so I will stick with what I know.

Thanks Tim, that is pretty much the conclusion I have come to. I will get more out of the lens, and can upgrade the camera to a new model that offers more benifits over the 350D later.

That must have eaten into their margins big time! John

Give away say $500 worth of prizes.. ANd it's still cheaper than taking a full res image of a pro, and reusing their images. New Zealand Photography Tours
