With the 1.4 and 2x you will have a very versatile set-up that is easy to pack and will give you sharp images. If I were forced to keep only one lens kit it would be that one.

I can tell there is a learning curve with this lens nad it a heavy bugger but I will learn and start a wieght class. So far I am very happy.  could have done a better crop but it's late and I hurred.:p  To take Pictures is a gift to post them on POTN is an Honor.
