Am interested too because I think my next lens will be the 100-400L and as I have the 40D it will be worth knowing what tc's work the best if at all. My Gear

I've cleared all camera and custom settings and now the buffer seems to be up to 16 for raw files, 20 for sraw and 99+ for small jpeg. I admit I made tweaks without recourse to the manual but even so I can't imagine why I was down to a buffer size of just 6 photos. Most odd Noise reduction. See this thread: My Gear

In which case you're returning it for working the way it is designed to.

Only the centre AF point was used. The shots were taken in raw and converted to jpeg in Lightroom with no editing whatsoever.

It is the Google Picasaweb website so I would expect it to work pretty well. I know of no restrictions on bandwidth so please try again. The link/site worked fine for me when I tried just now.
