Canon Extender EF 2x II
The Canon Extender EF 2x II is a 2x teleconverter for the Canon EF autofocus mount, doubling the focal length of compatible EF telephoto lenses while costing two stops of light. It sits in the second generation of Canon's EF extender line and is aimed at sports, wildlife and aviation shooters who need extra reach without carrying a longer prime.
UK auction activity on this extender has been thin, with one verified hammer result of £94 in September 2025 — a wholesale saleroom price rather than a dealer asking figure. On that single data point the median and the range sit at the same £94 mark, so as of 2026 a clean copy is broadly worth what that lot fetched at auction; expect dealer retail to be appreciably higher once commission and warranty are layered on top.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Canon Extender EF 2x II worth at UK auction today?
The single recorded UK auction hammer price is £94 from September 2025, so a tidy used example currently sells for around that level at saleroom level before any buyer's premium.
How much does a Canon Extender EF 2x II sell for compared to the newer III version?
Only the II version appears in the supplied sales history at a £94 hammer price; no comparative data for the III is provided here, so any premium for the newer version cannot be quantified from this dataset.
Is the Canon Extender EF 2x II a good value buy?
At the £94 auction price seen in 2025 it represents a low-cost route to doubling the reach of an EF telephoto, provided the glass is clean and the electronic contacts communicate correctly with the body.
