[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 579069, member: 24285"] Well I have a new camera to play with. Put the Kenko and the 200-500 on my D7100 and went bird hunting. First - someone had asked about noise when focusing. On the D610 (and D90 and D5100) there is a very little noise - had to listen for it. But on the D7100 it is much louder. I don't know if this is a bad thing or if it is just noisy. Certainly is disconcerting. 3 I also found that the D7100 with this TC is not nearly as fast to autofocus. I was shooting at mid day on a mainly sunny day. Light was not much of an issue. I missed many shots due to the failure to lock on focus. Maybe I need more practice with this camera but the settings and buttons are almost identical to the D610. I did find that the images are much larger than the ones from my D610 - because I almost always crop the image afterwards and end up with less mega-pixels. But apparently size matters - well for pixels anyway and even though the D7100 may have more pixels - those pixels are smaller and tighter packed than the D610's pixels. Confused - yeah me too. Bottom line - it does work - and did give me some great shots. [ATTACH=CONFIG]226532._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]226533._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
