[QUOTE="BeerBelly, post: 599867, member: 35439"] I'm not really sure where you're getting the double weight and price...The 300 with 1.4TC combo will weigh slightly less than the 200-500 and cost again, slighty less, but nowhere near the double mark you're reffering to. I think that the 200-500 peaks in sharpness at 300mm and is only slightly less sharp at 500mm, while giving you the flexibility of the zoom. I know a few photographers that switched from the 300 + TC to the 200-500. They compared both lenses and couldn't tell the difference in sharpness between them...Your call, but I vote for the 200-500. [/QUOTE]
