What does the widest aperture on a 2.8 become with a 1.4x tele-converter? How about on a 2x tele? Thanks in advance. Just curious because I' trying to figure out if I want the 70mm-200mm f/2.8 IS L with a tele or just buy the 300mm f/4 IS L. Suggestions would help as well.

1 stop loss with 1.4x, 2 stops loss with 2x. See the sticky at the top of the lens forum.

If you're going to shoot with the Tcon more go with the prime. They work much better with a Tcon.
