After using a 1.4 Converter with my 100-400 zoom for a while I decided to go one step further and bought a 'like new' 2X converter.
For a very short period everything was OK but on a trip out I realised that I had lost the Auto Focus.
I had it replaced by the company I bought it from without question.
But on it's first trip out on to the Peak District moors the replacement has done the same.
It was more evident this time that because there was no AF, (I could focus manually), I had lost the Image Stabilisation.
A big problem when the subject is probaly 3/4 of a mile away.
Is this common or do I have something amiss?
Camera was being supported by a monopod secured to the lens.
I removed the converter and everything worked as it should.
