Hi
I'm very new to the DSLR activity and have a Canon EOS 450D with a Canon 18-55mm IS and a Tamron 70-300mm, f4-5.6 DI lenses.
I was to start taking more wildlife shots but lack the lens to do it and the funds to do a great deal about it. Therefore a friend suggested getting a teleconverter which, while perhaps not being perfect, will let me get closer and learn the skills for when the big lens can be bought.
I was looking at the
Kenko Teleplus MC4 DGX 2x Canon AF Teleconverter as a possible. I know that I'll lose some stops but I have a few questions that I'd be grateful for some advice on:
Will it work with my camera and lens combination?
Will I loose anything else such as auto-focus?
Are they any alternatives (around the same price) worth considering eg the
Jessops 2X Converter?
Sorry if these are stupid questions but I'm confused with all the options!
Thanks in advance for any help.
Ian
