p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Testing out a new TC at the local pond


Tested out my new to me 2.0x TC on my 300/2.8 at the local pond. I think the combo is a keeper. Now if I'd only get some cool visitors to the pond

1. I wish I had a little more room on either end of this shot but the swan was close and took up most of the frame.

Looking good Glenn. I know in Canon land I love my 300/2x combo. I had always read that Nikon wasn't quite up to that level with their 2.0TC but these shots look really good.

Hope you get some more interesting visitors soon.

Thanks Morris. It's the TC-20e III that I just pick up here in the Buy and Sell last week.

Thanks Geoff. I'm sure the cormorants and osprey will appear soon enough. This is the newer TC-20e III that works well with the 300mm. There's a noticeable loss in IQ (to me at least) over the 1.7x but the extra reach is worth it until I can sell a kidney to get 600mm.

Thanks Eric. Gulls and pigeons are plentiful and willing subjects at this pond.

The seagull shot is amazing. The shadows among the white feathers are perfect...makes the bird look so smooth.

Thanks. Clouds rolled through while I was there so for a brief moment I was able to get some nice soft light.
