A few shots I took this morning using my D5mkII and my new Kenko extender. All of these were shot at 560mm. I do notice a small drop in IQ, but not a lot. Auto focus works good as long as you are in the light. For what it is, I'm very pleased.

Not bad.
I have a kenko 1.4 that I have used on my 100-400.

I have mixed results. I think from a tripod or monopod it would be pretty good.
I'm going to try again as my first test was all handheld.

Not bad at all. I know Silverfox1 did the same test also with favorable results.
