I'm thinking about buying a Sigma teleconverter for my Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 lens (the HSM DG EX Macro).
I've read some reviews and googled for some other thoughts about them, and well, I'm not too impressed by the reviews I've read...
Most shops I've checked for reviews didn't have any written by customers, Sigma's description looks (obviously) very nice...
On one forum I found googling they said that the 2X one was pretty bad compared to the 1.4X one...
Did anyone here have any experience with these converters?
I live in Spain, and the price on the internet, including sending costs, is around 250 euros for the 2X one...
- Is there anything better (400mm) that I could get for that price?
My camera is a Canon EOS 400D.

PS2: Oops, I just saw that I indeed posted this in the wrong section... arg... I shouldn't study and post on forums at the same time... sorry mods
