TC 1.4 with 70-300 DO

many have been intersted in results with the Kenko 1.4 TC and Canon 70-300 DO. Here are some pics. Put this set up thru its paces pretty well today with the kids at the park. All in all I am pretty pleased. Excellent AF and AV. Last night this set up was focusing pretty darn quick in low light. 1st pic is at 180mm (no incl. TC factor) Second is at 300mm (thats 672mm with crop and TC factor Boys and Girls! Whooohooo!)

I just got my 70-200f/4 today and it was raining and overcast, not good for this lense....

It's not nearly 700 mm, it's only 420 mm.

Yeah - that's 420 mm. Focal length isn't changed by crop factor.

Technically no, but it looks that way and gives you that extra reach as if it were 1.6x as longer..
