I find the EF300/2.8L IS, with EF2X II TC, very useful for birds flitting about in bushes. I also use it with the 1.4X for in flight photos although, yes, it is certainly a handful! Still, this is its great advantage over lesser lenses of the same FL . . . it is fast enough you can put a converter on it and still have enough speed to hand hold.

Provided it'a a matched TC of course. -- Terry Danks Wildlife & Nature Photography http://www3.ns.sympatico.ca/danksta/home.htm * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
