Excellent shot Rob, with 2X tc is excellent focus, and has good quality to the shot. And sorry haven't come across your backy tin. :D

Great "whites"...the smidgen of contrast among-st the feathers is exceptional...1000mm? Well that's awesome...

More reason to add the 500mmf4isL, to the shopping list...

Wonderful shot... I got to play with a 500 f4 today and again fell in love. Look forward to owning it myself some day. For now my 400 5.6 and the 2x and 1.4 stacked will have to do...

A super capture and mazingly well taken considering it was 1000mm Rob. Just goes to show that the EF500 is a great lens and with excellent technique will still produce a wonderful image with a Tcon. Very well taken mate.


Cheers Wayne :D
