[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 562603, member: 24285"] Decided to try the Kenko TC on my Nikkor 70-200 2.8 VR1. These are all hand held. Late day pictures with the sun in and out of the clouds. Not the brightest day to try a TC - pun intended. These are all cropped (most cropped-a-lot) and processed in Corel's Aftershot. [ATTACH=CONFIG]215646._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]215647._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]215648._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]215649._xfImport[/ATTACH] Stationary objects - comes out sharp enough. I'm not sure that there is a huge advantage of going from 200 to 280 with the 1.4 - perhaps with a 2x TC 400mm at 5.6 would be worth the effort, and 3x to 600mm perhaps. But 280mm vs 200mm ... Hmmmm not enough mm's to warrant it eh? And now for the birds and the bees . . . :p [ATTACH=CONFIG]215650._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]215651._xfImport[/ATTACH] I'm not sure what kind of 'bee' this be, A wee bit of google-research suggests the 'bald faced hornet'. [ATTACH=CONFIG]215652._xfImport[/ATTACH] I was losing the light when I found this group of Cedar Waxwings in my apple tree. And then this sparrow in the shadows in the pines. [ATTACH=CONFIG]215653._xfImport[/ATTACH] Neither of these ideal lighting - but still managed to get a "keeper" (of sorts). That was an interesting experiment. Again - it works - but not sure it would be worth the effort. Might as well just put on a 70-300 and get similar results without the bother of a T.C. FYI - all shot in Manual Mode. I'm working at doing this more often now with auto-ISO to cover over my mistaken settings. [/QUOTE]
