Features
Dust and moisture resistant construction
Extends the master lens focal length by 1.4x
Minimum loss of lens performance
Reduces inner reflection for higher image quality
The new version II maintains the outstanding optics of the previous version, and adds enhanced weather- resistant construction, and improved anti-reflective surfaces in the barrel
Successors to the EF1.4x this model offers valuable improvements for further enhanced image quality. This extender allows users to combine practicality and functionality with a new optical system allowing them to extend the master lens focal length by 1.4x, with minimal
loss of lens performance or image quality. With a dust- and moisture-resistant construction this extender has been designed to reinforce the EOS system. Specially designed to work in conjunction with the EOS-1V and IS super telephoto L-series lenses, it makes a highly dust- and water-resistant combination.
The EF1.4x II features improved anti-reflection materials inside the lens-barrel as well as improved coating around the outer edges of the lenses to reduce flare. All of these improvements will allow professional photographers to capture higher quality images than ever before.

Rate This Lens 1 = bad - 10 = excellent [7]
Optional Comments:
I try really to never use TCs... although when shooting wildlife you really arent left with much choice. The Canon 1.4x TC II is probably the better of the two focal magnifications available. It is only usable with lenses from the 135/2L and larger. It is also NOT compatable with offbrands due to its frontal glass protrusion. You will effectively lose one stop of light when adding this TC.

I use mine on my Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L, usually at air shows to get a little more reach (will equal 98-280mm)
