there was a thread a while ago asking for samples of this combo with the new firmware. I am using the kenko. here are some shots wide open (f8)

Link to orinal which is already fairly heavily cropped

Definitely a doable combo, if the light is good, and good tracking is not required. of course you also need to keep shutter speed high, etc.

Nice shots. But to really test the combo people are probably going to want to see some AI Servo shots (action).

does the 5DIII focus with the 1X4 converter attached or is it manually focused, Im thinking of getting the 1x$ to put on the 100-400L with the 1DIII

Yes, new firmware has just allowed AF @ f/8 on 5D3. It's very good combo on the 1D3

Kevindar,
Thanks for sharing.
I would suggest considering some MFA as it appears your first two shots are slightly front focused.
Look at the sharpness of the ground in each relative to the subject.

thanks for you suggestion. I will recheck it. keep in mind, in both sots, I am pointing the camera down, with the bird at about a 30 degrees, and with the lizard at 45 degrees. the point of focus for the lizard is his head. so the plane of focus is actually is oblique, and closer to me on the grand, further as I move higher.
but I will double check.
