Overview — Canon 1.4x II
Key Features — Canon 1.4x II
1.4x Focal Length Extension: Multiplies the focal length of compatible Canon EF lenses by 1.4x, providing additional reach without changing lenses.
Autofocus Compatible: Retains autofocus functionality with supported Canon EF telephoto lenses, keeping AF-driven workflows intact.
Canon EF Mount: Fits between the camera body and compatible Canon EF lenses, integrating directly into the existing EF lens ecosystem.
Full Frame Coverage: Designed to cover full frame sensors with no vignetting when used with compatible lenses.
1-Stop Light Loss: Reduces maximum aperture by one stop — a 300mm f/2.8 becomes a 420mm f/4 — which should be accounted for in exposure settings.
Lightweight at 220g: Adds only 220g to a telephoto setup, keeping the overall kit weight manageable for extended field use.

The Canon Extender EF 1.4x II is a Canon EF mount teleconverter built for DSLR camera systems with full frame sensor coverage. It operates in the telephoto focal length range and supports both Auto and Manual focus, giving photographers flexibility in how they operate their autofocus system when the extender is in use.
