I think that's a good idea in terms of the image quality as the lens can be calibrated with the extender at the factory. The down side is that given the cost of the standalone 1.4x TC Mt III ($500) and the added convenience the feature probably costs the end user ~$800-$1000.

What the heck?? combines the best of both worlds. the highest quality of a 2x zoom at f/4, coupled with a dedicated 1.4x to me is the best possible way to get 200-560 with the highest quality optics. imagine a native 2.8x zoom 200-560 f/4-5.6... the annonced lens is a little less convinient than this, but I imagine there's big payoff in IQ simply because of the zoom ratio. 5D mark iii, EF-24-105mm f/4, EF 70-200 f/2.8L IS II USM, Speedlite 580 EX II plus 3x Yongnuo 568EX, photoflex 60" white umbrella, Westcott Apollo Orb with grid
