Thanks to those of you who recommended taping over the 3 left connections of the Kenko. Autofocus works fine with it this way, I'm elated! thankyouthankyouthanky​ou!

ME TOO! I was so disappointed at first because I got the 400 to use with the extender and get more reach. Now all is well.....:D

This is one from today with 400 5.6 and Kenko 1.4 taped over. Very overcast, maybe 40' away.
