I prefer Pachelbels lesser known work, Canon in L and the 99 cent menu club.

Have anyone tested this lens with a Canon 2x teleconverter?

I need a better setup than the 70-200+2x, so i'm considering a 400 f5.6L or 300 f4L is.
But it need to work ok with the 2x also, and it seems to much with 800mm f12.. 600mm f8 on a 1D mkIV would probably work better if I need it?!

Wish I just could afford the 400 f2.8... :p


- 1D mkIV - 5D mkII - EF 16-35mm f2.8L II - EF 35mm f1.4L - EF 70-200mm f2,8L IS II - EF 400mm f5.6L - EF 1,4x II - EF 2x II - Speedlite 580EX II

With the 1.4x Extender:

This lens seems to work equally well with the 7D as with the 40D. AF was especially good in servo mode, even with the 1.4x attached.

^^That's a terrific example of the macro capabilities of this lens!


Growing old disgracefully!

Got a chance to play with 300mm f4. It is a great lens.

I saw this nest along the freeway the other day and how can I missed this, This is my route everyday and only notice it yesterday, anyway I went to see a closer look today and too a pic and found out it is an Osprey nest. With 1.4x extender.

Just random shot....I hope I get lucky next time I visit it.
