Would it be worth it to throw a 2x extender behind my 70-300?
and would the Canon 2x work with my Sigma lens?

I've shot a few launches (I lived in Orlando a few years) and a long lens is really helpful. The longest lens I had at the time as 300mm and it wasn't long enough. Night launches are beautiful, but hard to expose correctly.

Well a 300 is what I have, Don't think I will get anything longer.
