i know what you mean. i've not really used mine yet & i tried it on a body for 15 minutes tonight..
Dang that thing's heavy!
i'm going to start back at the gym this week which should help, lost all my strength since i took a desk job about 7 years ago.
the Chub is packing some weight for sure!
Nothing spectacular but some shots from MMA event in Bangkok.
The 1.4 Tele on it stopped down to 3.5 or 4.
I learned here about some weakness at a distance for this teleconverter.
Up close it is sharp wide open, but at a distance, stopping down a touch definitely improved matters.
EDIT: I meant to specify that I am using the M1 version of the TC.
I wasn't sure of the cost benefit of upgrading for use with the 200, but now I see how a case can be made.
I likely will not as I don't shoot at distance often, but I better understand now.
