Thanks again, folks.

This is astonishing. I find it unbelievable that one could attach a 1.4 TC onto a zoom lens of such a focal length as that and get these incredibly awesome results. This sure shows me how much I have to learn about using my equipment. Sheesh, thanks for sharing.

TC + zoom is tough to shoot, but useable when everything falls into place. Here's an ancient one from the 300D + Bigma + Tamron 2x TC, 1000 mm, f/16, ISO 400, 1/200 sec, fill-in from DG Super, tripod/ballhead:

Considering distance and logistics, this shot is nothing less than amazing even if you used a sturdy tripod. Fine work!

Fur shure!
