Like I said. Can't remember. My missus is going to unpack it and send me the details.
It was a 2nd hand from KEH.com so I don't think it was the HSM model.

Review to come and here's my tax for the day.

A quick Teleconverter question. With kids footy and soccer seasons coming up and since I was too late to post instant on a Sigma 10-20 on OCAU, I was wondering about consoling myself by going the other way and getting a teleconverter to use with the 400D and 70-200 f2.8/L.

Does anyone have any experience with the Kenko 2X as advertised on D-D Photo ? The Canon one looks nice, but as I'm still hoping to grab an 10 -20 sometime soon, I'm wondering if the extra money is justifiable.

I'm mainly going to be using it for kids sport and next season, for surf lifesaving type stuff.

I use the Kenko Pro 300Dg x2 TC and have good results with my 100-400L. I can even get AF in good light sometimes (wide open), but usually it's manual on that lens.

An example 100-400L + x2TC Handheld ISO200 1/100sec F11
