Had to time to try the hummingbirds today. A couple of them were shot with an extension tube + the 400 5.6; other were with the 70-200 2.8IS with 1.4 converter.
Let me know what you think.

I would have say, 1&2 are better. You have the bird's eye engaged with you. Nice shots.

Nice shots Jon,

my top picks are the first two. Now you have to try to stop their wings.

Good job on these & congratulations

HI Lil. I am not usually a big fan of wings that are stopped on the hummingbird shot as it feels a bit to static for me. Thanks for the comment though.

Very impressive Jon. The first is my favorite - it really showcases the color and fine detail of these lovely fellows.

Cheers,

Lovely, the first 2 you shot with the 400mm are great.

Thanks Gene. It is hard for me to tell exactly how that shot looks at this point because my nice monitor went out and I am using a very old CRT until the other is fixed under waranty.
