Re: What!...Can't shoot the small stuff

Nice shots .

What people don't know , post or just ignore is - was it / the comparsion done with same camera that was MAed for correct distance ?

Granted , I did the MA thing on my 70-200 with the 2 X III on it. Big difference between 70 [ 140 mm ] and 200 [ 400 mm ] Also a big difference between 70 mm at 20 feet and 50 feet .

As far as upgrading to a newer version - I am waiting for the 100-400 II to come out - yes , been waiting since 2010 . Only you can decide if it is worth it . But I also a 135-400 and 70-300

Sitting on 800 towards it - I think it will probably be from 2000 to 2400 .
