I recently upgraded to a lovely, shiny, almost new Canon 5D and love it to bits. The image quality is stunning, and full-framiness very nice.
I came from a 400D where I was often using a 300mm L F4 lens (more often than not with a little too much reach than I really needed due to the multiplication factor).
My question is, if I sold the 400D on and picked up a 1.4 teleconverter, will I still get better IQ than the straight 400D + 300mm combination?
Basically, will the converter reduce IQ noticably?
Is it right that I will also loose a stop of aperture with this combo too - F5?
Anything else I've missed?
Cheers,
Andy
