[QUOTE="hark, post: 748871, member: 13196"] I gave my 300mm f/4 PF absolutely every chance to perform, but in the end it just couldn't AF well. Most images missed focus while the rest were very soft. I even switched to my 1.4x TC - but no better with that. So today I went out with my 300mm f/4 non-VR lens coupled with my 1.4x TC. This lens makes noise while auto focusing, but it still has a little life left in it. Wound up not being able to capture some images simply because the lens couldn't achieve AF on a moving target. And that was a shame. Two crows decided to dive-bomb this hawk - tried but failed to focus. Eventually the hawk had enough and took off after them. Then it became very quiet. No idea whether or not the hawk caught up with them. [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]349533._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
