Good evening everyone,
I am weighing up the prospect of renting a lens for this years RIAT. I have been considering renting a 300 f2.8 ISII from LensesForHire and possibly a 2x III extender to use with my 60D. However I have a few questions and was hoping for insight...
300mm + 2x extender + 1.6crop will give me a focal length of 960mm at f5.6 - will I be served well by this at RIAT?
Also, it's quite expensive (about £200 in total for the weekend) to rent that particular lens and extender, can anyone recommend another lens that may serve be better at a more affordable price point?
I have no doubt that this question has been asked to death on photography forums, but searching here I mainly came across owner club threads! Well, apologies for that
