[QUOTE="J-see, post: 365402, member: 31330"] Thanks Wayne. That's basically all I needed to know. As long as the communication between lens and cam is working, it would serve its purpose. Since the extension is a hollow tube, it should prevent the TC from damaging the internals of AF lenses. It will be manual focus only but that's even the case when using the TC with the new AF-S micro. For macro this solution would be perfect since extensions don't affect quality and the TC is a lot better than a diopter quality-wise. The 200mm has some room to sacrifice for magnification and that combo would also make the investment in a R1C1 worth it since you're close enough for it to function properly. A good thing the OP posted the question else I'd never had discovered this pretty cheap solution. [/QUOTE]
