Borrowed the 135mm 2.0 L off Pete here at POTN and tried it with a Canon 2.0x II Extender. Gives great results and AF remains lightening fast in AF - amazing speed.
Here is the 135mm 2.0 L with Canon 2.0x II TCon:

The result with the 2.0x doesn't look too bad. I own this lens, and I'd love to try out an extender. There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs. ~ Ansel Adams

I tried the new max size for posting 1024 but reduced the jpg quite a bit so it would load quickly. On my monitor the TIFF it looks pin sharp. I think I might stick to 800px. https://photography-on-the.net …/showthread.php?t=1203740
