April 2 2010

The 300mm zoom and prime lens shoot out page now has Sony tele-converter use crops added below the regular crops for the three lenses that will accept the Sony TCs.

A few interesting results show up if you look closely, like the extra 100mm on the end of the Sony 70-400mm produces about the most detail, even when you add the 2.0x to the Sony prime.  Also, the Sony 300mm F/2.8 is the only lens I’d use the 2.0x TC on, as the loss of stops on the other two lenses will give you some really low shutter speeds, resulting in blur, even using a tripod.  Don’t forget when you add the 2.0x TC to the 70-400mm and Minolta 300mm F/4, you only get manual focus!
