DVDs I bought yesterday. Got lots of videos to burn. Thought they looked colourful in front of the monitor (there is a window open on the desktop - that's where that light blue highlight comes from)

70-200mm F4 with 2.0x TC

What's the quality of the 2.0x TC like, and which one are you using?

What's the quality of the 2.0x TC like, and which one are you using?

Is the Nikon TC 20E-III , I assume your talking about the picture quality,Yes i'm happy with it but i've only been using it on the 70-200mm F4 which is a pretty decent lens,same as most things there is tradeoff's involved,Losing 2 stops does slow down the AF when there's not great light + you do lose some detail but overall i definitely don't regret buying it.
The versatility of being able to get to 400mm without carrying around a rocket launcher or the cost of one suits me fine for now.
If one was a professional action shooter i think a F2.8 lens would be a wiser choice than the F4 but for me its ok.

Did post a couple of shots with & without the 2.0xTC on the 70-200mm F4 here
