Subject: Re: [Leica] APO 2X extenders - non ROM?
From: inyoung@jps.net

Hello,

 What would be the difference in quality between APO 2X Extender and plain
2X Extender?  How much does the non-APO Extender degrade the quality when
used with one of the prime lenses?  Reduction of largest aperture by two
stops sounds inconvenient to me.

Regards,
David
