Extenders (Sold Separately)

When shooting with EOS A2/A2E/5 fitted with either the EF300mm f/2.8L IS USM or EF400mm f/2.8L IS USM, use –0.5 step exposure compensation when using extender EF1.4II, and use –1 step exposure when using extender EF2II.

When taking pictures on an EOS A2/A2E/5 using an EF1.4II/EF2II extender with the EF500mm f/4L IS USM or the EF600mm f/4L IS USM, use the values in the table below for exposure compensation.
