Kenko 2x Pz-AF Teleplus MC7 or MC4

As the title sugests, which is better MC4 or the MC7... Used with my Sigma APO 70-200 f2.8 EX DG OS HSM and some old long Tokina Lenses?

For the Sigma only, you should get a Sigma TC. But for everything, get a Kenko 300 Pro, since the Teleplus are crap. The 300 line holds up against anything anyone can throw at it.

/Edit: General comment: any brand's lenses will work best with their own TCs.

MC7 is better than MC4

However, both of them are not very good for IQ

Acording to Kenko's website the Pro 300 series and compatible with Pentax?

IDK but somewhere I saw the TCs in Pentax mount...

Not so sure anymore, but try emailing them. You can still go for the Sigma TC, it will be perfect on your 70-200 and better than the Telepluses on your other lenses.
