No substitute for a bare lens or just an added 1.4 but you might be surprised and it is fun to experiment. Silverfox1 POTN Feedback / TC Extender Tests / Gear List

This was more just for fun. I figured a good way to get some extra reach for moon shots. Nikon D850 l Nikon 28 1.4E l Nikon 50 1.8 g l Nikon 24-120 F4 l Tamron 100-400 l
