[QUOTE="Elliot87, post: 478885, member: 25183"] [USER=14174]@mikew[/USER] the only extension tubes I have don't have electronic connections so I can't use them on my 70-300mm. I suspect that the IQ with the 55mm and 2xTC would be much better than what I would get with the 70-300mm, on its own the 55mm is far sharper as I think you can see from the 3 shots below. They were taken at roughly the same distance from the sparrow, perhaps a little closer with the 55mm. Uncropped image from the 55mm [ATTACH type="full"]171746._xfImport[/ATTACH] Next image in sequence cropped to match 70-300mm image [ATTACH type="full"]171747._xfImport[/ATTACH] 70-300mm image uncropped [ATTACH type="full"]171748._xfImport[/ATTACH] If a crop that big can still pretty much match the 70-300 for sharpness, I guess using a TC with it would perform compare well too.
