if you focus too close, the retaining for the rear element touches the

100% compatible with much, just the A* and FA* lenses 300mm and longer
except for the FA* 400/5.6. it has the drawbacks i describe. the S versions
will not touch anything. if that is the only long FA* or A* lens you own, i
suggest forgetting the L converters and just use S or the 1.7X AF converter.

Do the L-converters work with the FA*400/5.6 lens? The manual of the converters says they will work but the manual of the FA lenses (2003 version) says that only the s-versions will work with this lens.
