Some A1/600GM shots
A bird I almost never see came by, but in the distance. I put on the 2x and of course it got chased away by the great blue heron immediately after. I kept the 2x on for a shot anyway.

This afternoon I ran across a very chill hawk. I was able to test the 300+2xTC, 200-600, and the 400-800 bare and with the 2xTC.
These two shots are with the 400-800+2xTC on the fist one for 1600mm and then 2400mm with the 1.5x active.
I was expecting mush to be honest... a little surprised there's details in the images, shot hand-held as well. At 1600mm, tiny moves are really amplified lol. My entire series of shots looks like a sine wave.

Messing around with a free trial of DXO Pure raw 6. Not sure I like the work flow as opposed to LR Denoise, its alot clunkier. Some images look better, some not. These are ran through DXO.
Wilson's Warbler
Waited for over an hour for this Osprey to give me a close flyby
This one's not DXO though
