To fully comprehend the addition that the Canon Extender EF 2x II provides it is necessary to elaborate a little more on just what it is able to do for the user. The Extender EF 2x II makes an EF 70-200mm f/4.0 L Lens into a 140-400mm f/8 lens, a 300mm f/2.8 IS becomes a 600mm f/5.6, and so on. This is a fairly dramatic improvement when considering the price of the Extender EF 2x II, meaning the user gets an above average product for a reasonable cost.

The Extender EF 2x II does not affect the minimum focus distance, yet it does multiply the maximum magnification by two times as well. Since the Extender EF 2x II does increase the zoom level the photographer can achieve, certain image quality issues are bound to arise. For instance, slight image degradation in the form of barrel distortion and chromatic aberration do occur. The best way to avoid or at least minimize these problems is to use the Canon Extender EF 2x II on a lens that is already known for being exceptionally sharp.

In the end, the Canon Extender EF 2x II is a very convenient and affordable way to extend the focal length of your lens. While the image quality may suffer slightly, there is no question that this extender is a good way to improve compatible lenses.
