OK, this pushed me over the fence. I asked friend who has both the 300 GM and 200-600 to shoot a subject at 2.4 meters (the 200-600's MDF) to see the difference in size. Here are the results. I know some don't really care about MDF but I do, as I have this peculiar situation where I can shoot hummingbirds from about 2 to 2.5 meters. So the 300+2X TC will give me much bigger hummingbird at 2.5 meters than the 200-600 would.
Need to sell some lenses that I don't really use to get this puppy. I am keeping the 200-600 as my main airshow lens.
