More testing......this time I have mounted 2xTC MkIII on 500 II for the first time.
Had some nice early morning sunlight, but still needed ISO 800 which was a bit punishing on poor old 1DsMkII. However, \"Neat image\" helped with the file cleanup.
All images done handheld, with the lens wide open (i.e., f/8).
Dynamically the combo is a poor performer, barely able to Servo AF track slow approaching-swimming ducks.....that was always the case with 2xTCs mounted on any lenses.
The IQ is not bad at all. Is it better than before, that I wouldn\'t know because I have never mounted a 2xTC on any 500, and I am not likely to do it ever again.
Having a major boost in FL reach at the expense of AF and some IQ, that\'s not my cuppa tea.....f/8 is a world of darkness.
