Brilliant argument, you’re helping me to cement things into my head a bit more so thanks for posting what I couldn’t put into words properly to myself :D thanks to all the above... a good discussion is always the best place to start. You’ve all helped hugely (y)

Ive been testing a range of high ISO’s with a clean background and with a bit of noise removal and careful not to zoom beyond silly on my iPad, results are crazy. I think I was too quick to dismiss the tc and not even try when the light had dipped a bit. I will save for a longer lens which...

It was too big for me to really enjoy it. Suffered a lot with a neck problem but thankfully that’s improved with my change of job last year. Your shots of the WTSE are amazing

I’ve just posted a pic of the neighbours black lab on here (scroll down a bit) shot at 1000 iso but no converter (Disproves the poor performance theory lol) I’ve deleted any shots I had taken with the tc at high iso so I’m going to take some test shots at some point while I have a few days off...

Stunning shots. Thanks for sharing. I’m going to try some more well thought out shots and concentrate on the garden birds we have as they’re a great test. I’ve started to take them for granted even though I love my shots I‘ve got with the outside set up.

This - I think my issue is that I’ve used the tc and got poor results for all sorts of reasons and then dismissed it. Just been going over images in LR and from what I already knew (I crop too much) I never use NR and am zooming in to more than 100% to crit the images. I’ve gotten lazy too...

Hi all, thank for posting this Ben while I‘ve been at work. I’m the picky person Ben talks about :) thanks for the suggestion Gramps, long time no see :wave: The 300pf is amazing, I don’t like the tc as the af is sluggish and imo degrades the quality too much. I’m also disappointed with the...

Cracking shots Mick [emoji106]

Wow, stunning! I love the Dunnock the most, too Y)

A real beauty (y)

Little update... The repairers are still awaiting parts from Nikon so Hdew said it's gone on long enough and a new one is en route (y) Wouldn't have found this so quick if it wasn't for the FoCal software

A cracking shot, small world eh?! :)
