[QUOTE="STM, post: 619617, member: 12827"] I was maybe 25-30 meters from this nest. For this shot I had the TC-14B on it and it was indeed hand held. There was very little cropping. The image itself is probably very close to full frame width-wise with just some cropped off on the top and bottom. If you do get this lens, I would also recommend you get a microprism/split image screen for your camera from focusingscreen.com. It allows for very critical focusing and will not affect AF. The EXIF says f/8 but it is wrong. I very rarely bother to change the Non-CPU lens settings in the camera because honestly it is not that important to me. I am pretty sure this was shot at either f/4 or [I]at most[/I] f/5.6 to keep the background very OOF. Even at 200% the image is still razor sharp. [/QUOTE]
