Extender 1.4 to use with 70D and EF 70-200 f/4 IS. Any compatibility problems?

I am planning to get the Extender 1.4 to use with my EOS 70D and the EF 70-200mm f/4 IS.  Are there any compatibility problems with this combination?

Perfectly may be a stretch but, yes, they will work as well as the combo can.  Anytime you add something like a tele exrender you have to give up something.  In photography you give to get.  There is no free lunch. Fortunately you are starting out with a pretty good lens and can afford to lose an f-stop and some IQ.
Let me pose a slightly different question. Suppose you already have (as many of us do) a 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II. Suppose you add the 1.4 tele-extender. The combination would result, I believe, in a 98-280mm f/4, a potentially useful lens that doesn't appear in Canon's lineup. So given the cost of the TE and the image quality of the combination, is buying the TE a smart move?
Note that buying the TE does not compromise the 70-200 in any way, since it's still as good as it ever was without the TE. The combination, for the price of the TE, stands or falls on its own.

  • HT2589 I have an Apple ID which I had registered years back. I wanted to use the same Apple ID to download apps - but whenever I try to login with that Apple ID, it tells me "  "This ID hasn't been used with Itunes", and proceeds to let me "Review" it.

    I have an Apple ID which I had registered years back.I wanted to use the same Apple ID to download apps on my ipod touch - but whenever I try to login with that Apple ID, it tells me "This ID hasn't been used with Itunes", and proceeds to let me "Review" it. In the last step, I'm asked to furnish credit card information, which I don't want to, since all I want to do is to be able to download free apps !!

    Could the credit card be expired?
    Beyond that, what you need to do is contact iTunes support, they can tell you exactly what is wrong, none of us here can do that.
    In the lower right corner of this page is a 'contact us' link. Click on that and you'll see a page full of info and links, one of which is iTunes support.

  • HT204053 I want to be able to setup a generic corporate Apple ID to use with icloud and Find my Iphone, that will allow me to have more than 10 devices assigned to the ID. What do I do?

    I want to be able to setup a generic corporate Apple ID to use with iCloud and Find my iPhone, that will allow me to have more than 10 devices assigned to the ID. How do I go about creating this account?

    I'm not sure if I understand your question, but if you create a new iCloud account with a different ID your existing ID isn't effected by this.  It will continue to work as it does now, you will just have an additional Apple ID.  If you have an earthlink email address you can continue to use it as a separate account, and it can continue to be your default account if you set it to be (in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account).  If I'm misunderstanding your question, please explain further.

  • HT3529 How can I get dictation for my iPad for use with email and messaging

    How can I get dictation to use with messaging and email?

    Apple's dictation requires Siri, which requires a 3rd or 4th generation iPad (or iPad Mini).  See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5457
    Your post says you have a second generation iPad, so it will not have dictation.
    There are third party apps available that might help you.

    Recommendations for Semi-Pro or Pro HD Video camera to use with fcpX and Mac with auto settings and ability to override, need to add external mic or 2.  Am one person crew so needs to be easy to use.

    And check out the Panasonic AG-AC90.  Very good specs for a prosumer unit. Everything in the semi-pro area will involve trade offs for sure. Key thing is to study up enough to know what your needs are vs what trade off are involved in the various models. The ag-ac90 trade off (one of them) is diffraction limited sharpness.

    You shouldn't have any compatibility issues. But you don't store images "in" Lightroom. Lightroom simply points to wherever the images are on your system. You might like to watch a few videos that can help you understand how Lightroom works.

  • HT4623 Is there any compatibility problem between iPod 4 and Bose docks?

    Is there any compatibility problem beteween ipod touch 4 and Bose docks?

    What does Bose say? Make sure you look for a 4G with iOS 6.
    I do not recall being aproblem with iOS 6 but with 7 I think yes.
    Sometimes this works:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset the dock
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
      - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Formatting Hard Drive to use with TM and Windows

    I hope this is not a strange question. I have new iMac with 500GB, and a Windows XP system that I'd like to use with my new eGO 1TB USB drive.
    Will this work:
    - Partition 750GB for Time Machine
    - Partition 250GB to allow my Mac to store files permanantely, as well as being accessible by Windows XP.
    I assume that there is a drive formatting process that allows this? In other words can one Partition be 'Mac Only' and the other 'Mac and PC'?
    I am hoping that I can unplug the USB from the Mac, and take the eGo to the XP system, and have the 250GB Partition be accessible.
    Am I on the right path here?

    select the whole drive (model, not name) in disk utility and click on the partition tab. set the number of partitions to two and click on options. in the resulting popup set the partition scheme to GUID. then click on each partition and change the formats to Mac os extended journaled for the first 1 and to MS DOS (FAT) for the second one. finally, hit "apply".

  • How can I extend my wireless network using Airport Express and an Airport Extreme on BT Infinity?

    I have BT Infinity and I am using the Time Capsule with Airport Extreme as my router. Working well (even on wireless). I want to extend the wireless network with an Airport Express, but I cannot work out the settings necessary in Airport Utility. I am using Mountain Lion 10.8.2 on a Mac Pro. Please help!

    BT,
    I've read several of your posts, thanks for taking the time to share your wealth of knowledge.
    I'm in a situation similar to the one described by 'scoutusmaximus'.  Seeking the flexibility of a standalone router, I finally upgraded my 4-yr old ATT DSL gateway (modem+router) to a Comcast standalone modem + the ASUS RT-AC66U: http://www.asus.com/Networks/Wireless_Routers/RTAC66U/
    Typically, I stick with all things Apple but the ASUS router seemed fairly superior to the current-gen base station (on paper, anyway; time will tell when it comes to performance) so, for once, I jumped ship.  My plan was to extend the ASUS wired/wireless network using my TimeCapsule and 2 Airport Expresses in bridge mode, however, a google search turned up several unhappy customers that claim those devices don't play well with non-Apple routers, especially when it comes to 'extending' a network. 
    Questions:
    1. Can I successfully extend the wired/wireless network created by the ASUS router using the 3 airport devices listed above w/out negatively impacting performance?  I'd rather have 1 wireless network as opposed to creating a new wireless network with the TC and then extending it with the AP Expresses... though I'd consider that option down the line if it came to that.
    2. Will the LAN ports on the TimeCapsule remain functional?
    Btw, my house is wired so, I can reach all 3 devices via ethernet cable coming off of a central, managed switch.  Supposedly, you only lose the LAN ports on the TC if you extend wirelessly.
    Any advice would be appreciated.

  • How do i configure outlook for use with icloud and my iphone?

    I am at a loss at how to configure my outlook 2007 for the best synch and use with my icloud and or iphone. Any help out there?

    You can't write to it because it's formatted as NTFS which OS X will read but not write to. If you want to continue using the drive with both a PC and OS X you will need to download and install NTFS-3G so you can then write to it from your Mac. You can get NTFS-3G at:
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24481/ntfs-3g
    If you want to use the drive exclusively with your Mac then move the data off it and reformat it in Disk Utility (Applications - Utilities - Disk Utilities) as Mac OS Extended (Journaled.)

  • What format for my external drive allows use with Mac and Windows?

    I got an external hard disk (1 tr) and i want to used it for my windows and mac, i read i can have two partitions one for mac and one for windows, but i dont really want to have two parts, and I read i can format it by fat32 and i can write and read on both os, is that true?
    I want to use it for movies, os backups, and files..
    Is it true that i can only save files up to 4 GB when the format is fat32?
    please advise..

    It this case you would need to to go to "Disk Utility" on mac and select 3 partions which will be under the Parition Layout in my screen shot below. "Current" is grayed out that will drop down select 3 partitions and make one NTFS, second Mac OS Extended, third FAT32. Using the FAT32 for both Mac and Windows but the files have to be under 4GB each.
