$125 is a bit steep. I paid $119 through KEH. You might try to talk them down a
bit but it's worth doing. I find it to be a fine teleconverter. Its built-in
focusing combined with the lens's focusing allows you to get very close; good
for macro work. Also 1.7x is a nice compromise between 1.4x and 2x.
