[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 784393, member: 50197"] Well, the setup you have right now gives you an effective 900mm lens. Keep in mind that if you upgrade to a full frame sensor, you will lose the 1.5 crop factor, and that 600mm will go from effective 900 to 600. I haven't used a teleconverter in several decades, so I can't give you any recent experience. You should make sure that you won't lose AF because your max aperture is too slow. If my math is correct your max aperture with that lens and a 2x converter will give you f13. FWIW, I recently upgraded from a D3400 to a Z5. I haven't seen that big a difference in image quality between the crop sensor and the full size. They are both right around 24 MP. Perhaps the Z7 with almost double the MPs would have given me a bigger jump, but some of the info I have seen says it's more, but not a lot more. There are other features that have made the switch well worth it, but I was a little disappointed that I didn't get a big bump in rez. [/QUOTE]
