EF-S 55-250 IS STM + Kenko 1.5x SHQ teleconverter
10

Rare catch: CSX engine #1. Canon M6ii, EF-S 55-250 IS STM, Kenko 1.5x SHQ TC, 375mm, f8, 1/1600s, ISO 160, cropped to pixel resolution but not downsampled (Atmospheric distortion from the afternoon heat)

Sandpiper. Canon M6ii, EF-S 55-250 IS STM, Kenko 1.5x SHQ TC, 375mm, f8, 1/1600s, ISO 640, cropped to pixel resolution but not downsampled

Anclote Key light from 2 miles away in infrared. Full-spectrum converted Canon M200, EF-S 55-250 IS STM, Kenko 1.5x SHQ TC, Hoya R72 IR filter, 375mm, f8, 1/400s, ISO 1000

Yellow-crowned Night Heron at sunset. Canon M6ii, EF-S 55-250 IS STM, Kenko 1.5x SHQ TC, 375mm, f8, 1/125s, ISO 1600

Klosterman Bayou Island. Canon M6ii, EF-S 55-250 IS STM, Kenko 1.5x SHQ TC, 150mm, f6.3, 1/1250s, ISO 100

Anclote Key light from 3.5 miles away. Canon M6ii, EF-S 55-250 IS STM, Kenko 1.5x SHQ TC, 375mm, f8, 1/1000s, ISO 500

The EF-S 55-250 IS STM's rear mount was modified (cut off) so it would work with EF teleconverters. The Kenko 1.5x SHQ teleconverter's chip was removed so that it would work fully. it does not report in EXIF data but caption data was provided.

The EF-M 55-200 IS STM is slightly sharper and more contrasty than this combo, but just doesn't have the same reach so it doesn't get as much use.
