I recently bought the Canon 70-200mm f2.8 IS lens and found that I still wanted more reach, so I checked out the Canon Extender EF 2X III tele converter. I found it used for 350.00 at B&H. When shooting on the FS5 in Center Scan mode the lens effectively is an 800mm lens. You can add another 2x (1,600mm) using Clear Image Zoom, but there is a drop in quality with that feature.
Keep in mind that the Canon Extender 2X causes you to lose 2 stops of aperture. When using the 70-200 f/2.8 with the Metabones Speed Booster Ultra you gain one stop, making it all even out to f/4, which is fine for shooting in the daytime. I shot all of this at f/5.6
