I have seen a 2nd hand canon 2x converter for sale, it's a Mk1,
the new 2x is a Mk11, is the Mk11, any better,if yes, in what way,and if I were to buy a 2nd. hand Mk1,would this be as good as a Mk11.

the mk2 was re-designed optically but iv read there is not much diffrence in IQ .
the main diffrence is the mk2 has weather sealing, of cause this is only any good if the lens you put it on has it too.

I think it is only the Mk II which will allow you to stack with a canon 1.4tc.(you cannot stack with a 2x mk I)
 
Ok, thanks for that,I have seen a 2nd hand mk1 for sale,so I think I will hang on and get the newer Mk11,as will most likely get the 1.4tc as well at some date,just waiting now for the camera shop to get the lens in....
