p.1 #1 · The 2x experiment

As we are all broke at the moment and cant afford a 600mm f4..... I thought I would try a trusty 2x teleconverter to see how it handled a bit of frosty morning birding

I attached the 2x to a Sony 70-200mm GM OSS II

TLDR (Keep saving....)

Sony 300 2.8 with 2x seems to be the new meta to 600f4 haha
