I have these lenses....

Canon EF 35-135mm f/4-5.6 USM
Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6
Tamron AF 75-300mm f/4.0-5.6 LD for Canon

and want to find an extender rather than spending the loads of cash on the lenses I really want.... anyone know what would work or know of a compatability list I can search?? Any help appreciated!!

edit to provide correct lens info

Looking at your lenses I would assume that you will only be using the 'extender' (teleconverter?) with the Tamron 100-300, therefore it seems sensible to choose one of the Tamron teleconverters

EFS lenses have a different mount and will be difficult to find and extender...

Are you looking for extension tubes or a teleconvertor.

I use a Kenko Teleplus Pro DG 1.4x teleconvertor with all my lenses except for the EFS 18-55 kit lens. Nice and Sharp, half the price of a canon and doesn't have that goofy protruding knobby that the Canon does.

Kenko also has some cheap Extension tubes or do what my buddy did and get a cheap cheap knock off Teleconvertor and remove the glass from it...he paid 15 bucks for one of those cheap eBay TCs removed the lens and now has an extension tube for macro work.
