The Canon Extender can be used to increase the focal length of your telephoto lens, with minimal loss of lens performance or image quality. Note that using the Extender decreases your aperture by one stop: for example a lens which is f/4 becomes f/5.6 when the 1.4x Extender is used.

Canon Extenders are compatible with the following lenses offered by LensesForHire:

• EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS II, EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS, EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L
• EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS
• EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L IS
• Sigma APO 120-300mm f/2.8 EX
• EF 135mm f/2 L
• EF 200mm f/2.8 L
• EF 300mm f/2.8 L IS, EF 300mm f/4 L IS
• Sigma APO 300-800mm f/5.6 EX
• EF 400mm f/2.8 L IS, EF 400mm f/5.6 L
• EF 500mm f/4 L IS

Note that, when using the 1.4x Extender, autofocus is only possible on lenses with a maximum aperture of f/4 or better (f/5.6 or better for 1D-series cameras).

COMPATIBILITY NOTE: If you hire an Extender, please ensure it is compatible with the lens you want to use it with. We can't accept any responsibility if it isn't. The complete list of our lenses which are compatible is above. If you're not sure whether your lens is compatible, please ask.
