This is a Jpeg made from the Nef out of the camera. Below you can see a crop of that top image. The focus point was the eye at the f\/stop was f\/5.6 (lens wide open at f\/4 and the 1.4x made if f\/5.6). Because they were eating seed and you need at least 1\/125 to get the eye sharp when they are eating, the ISO was 800. Not only can you see how sharp the 300\/1.4x combo is, but also note how narrow the DoF is! The focus falls off nearly instantly in front of and behind the eye. That&#8217;s something I rather like and why I use teleconverters so often.That&#8217;s another aspect of the lens I really, really love and that&#8217;s its small MFD. Only have a couple of hours under my belt shooting with the 300PF but I am really liking all I&#8217;m seeing. mtc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The question keeps coming in, &#8220;shot the 300PF with the TC-14eIII?&#8221; Well now I can say I have and IMHO, it&#8217;s pretty damn amazing!
