Can anyone tell me what the difference between

Canon 1.4x extender MKI
and
Canon 1.4x extender MKII

I have a Canon D30 and Canon EF 400mm 5.6 - will both work on this kit?

Thanks

Andrew

See the bottom section of the page. Basically, 1.4x II is optically pretty much the same as the older version, whereas the 2x II was redesigned.
