1.4x extender. Canon or Kenko?
#7

Thankyou very much for the replies, and the points by Kombi Big Grin
I'm still not sure how 'telephoto' the 200mm really is (haven't used it *that* much), so when I put the 1.4x on, I couldn't really tell from the look that it was more, when it was.
I think that getting the longer focal length from existing lens is a good idea, as I won't have to buy and carry around a longer lens, and I don't know how often I'll be needing anything more than 200mm.

The Kenko (as well as Sigma!) sound good, and the Canon also, since it's the only one I've used. It sounds like the Kenko functions similar to the Canon, and for those *few* shots requiring more than 200mm, I might go with the cheaper option.. the Kenko, maybe the 1.4x then the 2x (to get 400mm). then they can be stacked as well right? Smile

then I think I should get out and shoot more rather than spending so much time looking at gear Tongue
and the extension tubes too!! :O for doing macro! sound good also!! Smile
