Before this thread is buried, here are few new images with my 500f4 + Canon Tc. It is hard to believe that I have shot over 10K with this amazing camera, and I am still have to hit Bosque yet :
Really excellent captures, Stephen! So, when are you going? I will go there mid November .....

Thank you, Joshua. I will be there from Nov 22 to 28. It will be quite a few FMers in Bosque this year around Thanksgiving. So far, I think there will be close to 10 FMers in the area around the same time, and at least three 1DMk3 on the ground. We will have time to compare notes. Please send me an email with a bit more details of your plan as I am hopefull putting a FM get together in Bosque this year.
I haven't used my Mk3 for long exposure yet,. How do you like the IQ from the long exposed images in terms of noise and hot/dead pixels? Did you turn the Long Exposure Noise Reduction (CFn ll-1) on? Did you notice that the camera took extra time to render the images with the noise reduction on? Appreciate any comments from your long exposure shooting experience.

The IQ seems very good. These are pretty busy images to checking dead pixels...will try a with some totally one color backgrounds and check...did not think of that but a good idea.
No on the in-camera noise reduction, it is not turned on for these. I should try it but my habit has been to not use it. Will try that also sometime side by side and compare.
In general, the long expsoure IQ is fantastic...the files on my PC are just amazing...full of depth you can't really see with these downsampled Jpegs. Very impressive.
