So then you add a TC, you lose light and thus, AF speed or ability altogether. Dante

I taped the pins after researching how and it will autofocus but is very slow and not very accurate. I have become quite accustomed to manually focusing the lens with very good results. My 70-200 2.8 IS will autofocus fast and accurate with the 1.4x II attached. cbjetboy
