Hi all,

I'm a long-time lurker, new to the forum, first post.

I recently purchased Canon 1.4x and 2.0x v.3 extenders (both from Amazon). The 1.4x came packaged sideways in the circular foam insert. Everything else about the packaging looked normal, and the extender did not look used. The 2.0x extender was packaged as you would expect, with the barrel oriented up and down, to fit in the circular foam.

Has anyone else seen this? Is the sideways orientation normal for the 1.4x v.3? I've searched and found nothing. The couple of unboxing videos I've seen were of the 1.4x v.2, which was packaged differently.

Thanks!
