Thanks !That's a shame ! A few cm higher and it would fit with the 1.4x. Looks like a great bag. I currently have a TT StreetWalker HardDrive which can hold the combo. But it is sadly missing the...

Looks like at great pack !Will it fit 7D + 1.4x TC + 500mm f4 ?

Has anyone tried this combination ? I guess it will be a tight fit at best, but I really like my Flipside 400 and would like to have a similar bag for my 500mm...

Yes, it's a function of pixel density, but APS-C sensors are more dens than FF sensors, so you point isn't relevant and same generation cameras tend to be more or less equal number of pixels (for...

It becomes more and more evident as you increase focal length. 500mm on FF is equivalent to 300mm on APS-C. If you stick with f4 lenses the difference is 2-3 kg (depending on 500mm generation) on...

Looks good to me. I would have preferred fewer MP and higher IQ but as long as it provides better sharpness and lower noise that the 7D I can live with that. The rest is more or less taken from my...

You can use LV AF. Works great. I occasionally use my 500mm f4 (old model) with a 1.4x mk III and a 2x mk II stacked. When stopped down one stop the IQ is acceptable (better than cropping and...

Thanks for posting Dale :-)Even without your post I felt confident that Canon will continue to develop great APS-C cameras. But I appreciate the reassurance of your information :-)

The 70D (if released) will be an upgrade to the 60D and is unlikely to serve as an upgrade to the 7D. No 7D mk II === big disaster and big bummer for Canon !

As already stated: Impossible to judge from the posted image. That aside, I don't believe that MFA apply to this image at all... the 100-400 + 1.4 TC does not AF using phase detect - only contrast...

The answer is: If you need the reach, focus speed, IQ and DOF of a 500mm f4, you will be very frustrated by a 70-200 + 2x TC. My most used lens is the EF 500mm f4 L IS. I wouldn't like to...

Well, you are probably not a technical person. The 1D X is pushing (portable) technology. Try to extrapolate the 7D performance with added 1D AF system and metering to a camera recording 46 MP per...

You are probably right in assuming that the 6D would work the way I want. Unfortunately this doesn't help me much. It's unlikely that Canon would add this functionality to the WFT and I can't use a...

Well, as a birder a FF camera simply doesn't make much sense for me. If it did I would have gotten a 1D X long ago. I will be very disappointed if Canon doesn't make a 7D mkII. And I believe that I...

Well, if you sharpen the 7D images to the same degree as you have done with the 30D images you will find that the 30D "advantage" will look somewhat different.

You were asking "at some time in the future". That's a lot broader than 7D mk II. But for my usage and a 7D mk II I don't see anything above the 20MP mark bringing anything but added cost... and a...

Well, Bill Gates is a special case. He has build an empire on a product that in no way is superior and made a sizable fortune doing so.

You are asking a purely hypothetical question. I'm willing to pay for what makes sense. Regarding lenses... my most used lens is a EF 500mm f4 L IS. So I'm willing to carry around a lot of weight...

That goes for me to - I'm a dsp guy too so I do know my stuff.Well if you don't mind carrying around a lot of extra data that doesn't really give you any benefit be my guest. I prefer being more...
