[QUOTE="Jon Rowlison, post: 557013, member: 32211"] Okay, I'll rule the Tamron out and I still may yet just rent a lens... but what I really was asking is if anyone had used the Sigma/Tamron/Nikon super-telephoto with a teleconverter and what their experience was. I may stretch the budget a bit and get the Sigma Sport which was always ALMOST an option. :) The Nikon lens looks to be 1/3 to 1/2-stop wider on the long end, but at a cost of the extra 100mm focal length (500mm as opposed to 600mm.) How is the IQ on the long end with or without decent teleconverters? ...looking for a first-hand account. I can definitely research on my own, but I love my photog community and value experiences presented here. :) [/QUOTE]
