So, your lack of self control is due to the behavior of others? Sounds like the old Flip Wilson/Geraldine argument - "The devil made me do it!"
I will gladly accept all the blame for everyone in this thread in exchange for sharing your images here.
)Takes a 1.4 with aplomb! If'n you're ok with f/9, that is...So - tell me true - how does it take a 1.4 tele?
(4 weeks of physical therapy and my shoulder is not improving. I found swiping a credit card didn't bother my shoulder at all! Hubby is feeling the pain, though.............
I will also accept the blame. It's a wonderful lens. And, it does very well with the 1.4tc. I have both.
This won't answer your question completely but this was done right after I got the lens.So - tell me true - how does it take a 1.4 tele?

Thank you for that. Were you on tripod?This won't answer your question completely but this was done right after I got the lens.
Z600 PF - A far off test
First can you find the Red Tail. Since I figured he/she (can anyone tell me) would sit a while, I decided to take images in FX and DX mode with and without the 1.4. TC. Just curious what they would look at with a similar perspective - no exactness or precise testing- when posted to this site...
I continue to think it takes it quite well.
I did with 1.4 most of the time when shooting birds. I am pretty satisfied.So - tell me true - how does it take a 1.4 tele?

I doubt it but not 100% sure. I never trust anything to sit still around here. I looked back saw I used 3200 SS which tells me I handheld as I was concerned with the distance. I also probably leaned against a wall, but you have that to factor in on a given shot. I think you will be quite pleased, but f9 means you need reasonable light of course.
Very nice catch! I agree I rarely use my 1.4tc unless it's a bright day. Although noise software does pretty good if you have to use a high ISO to get a fast enough SS.I doubt it but not 100% sure.

This was taken with the TC
Obviously the bird's eye is sharp. I wonder if shooting DX @ f6.3 would have helped tame the busy environment?
Perhaps.
Sorry to hear about your shoulder, Karen! I hope you get full recovery soon!So - tell me true - how does it take a 1.4 tele?

Some samples:
We're back to where it all began: taking test photos of the Dark-eyed Juncos that have arrived and signify the start of winter. After shooting with this lens now through all of the seasons and conditions, it is unequivocally my all time favorite lens.
Couple of nice shots. The BG came out well like this. Certainly better than a bright, featureless BG.
