Lens ordered!! Got a good price on the new Sports 120-300, should have it by the weekend. Can't wait!!
Keen to see how it runs with my Canon 1.4x III, anybody who has used the Canon III and also the Sigma notice much of a difference?

Seems to track quite well, decent focus, and doesn't seem to require any MA at first glance. Will test more later. 1Dx | 5D III | 1D IV | 8-15 | 16-35L II | 24-70L II | 70-200L II | 400L II | 1.4x III | Σ85 | 100L | 3 x 600EX-RT | ST-E3-RT

I did notice it cut down the amount of AF points available, I had to enable all 61 points instead of just the cross type. It removed the points to the left and to the right - does this happen with the Sigma tc? http://learn.usa.canon.com …n_crosstype_article.htmlp Robert Whetton

(backwards engineering at fault?) So this wouldn't occur with the Sigma teleconverters then? 1Dx | 5D III | 1D IV | 8-15 | 16-35L II | 24-70L II | 70-200L II | 400L II | 1.4x III | Σ85 | 100L | 3 x 600EX-RT | ST-E3-RT

With Canon Extender or Sigma TC attatched you lose AF-Points. Oh wow, that's the post I was looking for!!
