Hi Craig,

To see if 44 of the 45 sensors on the EOS 3 shuts off beyond f/5.6, as
per spec, you will need to mount an f/8 lens.

I guess that means f/5.6 with 1.4x TC, or f/4 with a 2x TC.

What aperture is reported for the combination of:
200mm f/2.8  +  EF 1.4x  +  25mm extension  +  EF 2x

Cheers
Julian Loke
