I usually use this lens in daylight so F stop is not a problem unless I want to add the 1.4TC. When I do that, I lose the quick autofocus while using the "tape" method on the TC. I still think it's a great lens. A lot less expensive than the 400 2.8 as well as lighter (10lbs? not including the case). Crisp clear photos from corner to corner. I don't regret buying it.
