and

Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 APO DG Macro Lens

Re: What extenders fit htese lenses?

strangely the canon extenders don't work. They work on the 100mm macro but not the 60 (I checked as I have one)

As for the sigma, you might get a 1.4x teleconverter to work, but then you'll be at f8 at the long end, and your camera may not autofocus anymore.

Ta guys. IOm just looking to buy one to have a go and try something new.

Cheers for the help, will look into the Kenko one, seems quite cheap on Ebay (as long as its not a knock off), though its fairly cheap on OneStop.
