The comparison doesn’t include a 400DO II with converter. The 400mm conlusion is the following: The version II 300 f/2.8 is much lighter than its predecessor, so the weight savings isn’t quite as significant. However, it’s clear that from a resolution standpoint at least, the 400 DO is slightly better than the 300 f/2.8 IS II with teleconverter.

Yes, the 400DO ll alone is sharper than the 300 ll with 1.4.  I mistakenly added a 1.4 to the DO.
