YUASA Motorcycle Battery. As I mentioned in The Amazing Ten-Year Motorcycle Battery, the YUASA YTX12-BS OEM battery in my '98 Honda CBR1100XX Blackbird lasted twice as long as I expected.

Canon EOS System - EF 1.4 Extender II

Canon EF 1.4x II Tele-Extender

Canon Extender EF 1.4X II - Telephoto Extender: The latest telephoto extender designed to work with Canon EOS cameras and and specific telephoto and zoom lenses.
Canon Extender EF 1.4X II - Telephoto Extender: The latest telephoto extender designed to work with Canon EOS cameras and and specific telephoto and zoom lenses.
This latest version of the highly regarded 1.4x super telephoto extender is even better than its predecessor with weather sealing via new rubber gaskets at both ends.

Installation and removal is easy. Using the 1.4x will make the 70-200mm into a 98-280mm lens. There is a loss of one f-stop (so an f/2.8 lens becomes an f/4 and the 70-200 f/4 becomes an f/5.6). For outdoor sports or racing photography this is not really noticeable.

I did not receive the extender in time to use it at the track during my last photo shoot but I look forward to using it next season and will post a field review at that time.

Included Items

  • Front and rear lens caps
  • Soft Case LP811
  • 1 Year Warranty

The Canon Extender EF 1.4x II is available from B&H Photo Video for $279.95.
