It is my understanding that 14167 is for the SL or SL2 while the 14127 is for the Standard and that 14167 should have two cams while the 14127 has one cam. I wonder if my 14167 adapters are only for the R bodies as 2X Extender for R is only for the R bodies, but with the code unchanged. I have seen several different codes of 14127, plain 14127, 14127* and 14127F. What is the difference among these three? <<< The 14167 with the 3rd cam can be used with SL, SL2 and R-bodies. It was originally produced in the SL/SL2 era without the 3rd cam. Just as there are 2-cam and 3-cam lenses there are also SL/SL2 and SL/SL2/R models of the 14167. Can't help with the 14127 codes.
