The first outing with my z6ii at a wildlife refuge resulted in some fair images of small birds. However, the overall unimpressive turnout (subjects were too small to fill the frame) is probably due to the far distance of the scene. So I am pondering the remedy of a z TC1.4 to extend fl to 840mm. I know that using a TC would affect IQ due to smaller aperture, slower AF speed, etc. However, some have reported that images shot with TC1.4 (z186) under good light do not suffer much in sharpness and IQ. Seems to be not a bad idea to use a TC. Yet the cost ($550) is so high that some opine it's not worth it. What are your thoughts, especially TC users?</p></blockquote><p></p>
