Canon 1.4x Extender Mk1 vs. Canon 1.4x Extender Mk2

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Canon EOS FAQ forum : One Thread

What's the difference between these two teleconvertors?

On the B&H webiste it looks like the Mk1 is beige and the Mk2 is white. Is this the case?

Are there any other differences?

Hope you can help.

The two are the same colour, which is a sort of off-white. There is very little difference between the two really. The mkII has the weather sealing for the mount, and has new light-absorbant material on the inside of the barrel to reduce flare, but optically they are identical.
