Thanks Erv, Sounds like fun I haven't seen snow in 30 years.
But it looks like you have some nice weather coming Sat. Should be a nice week end. Do you plan on shooting anything Astro?:P

I might take the camera for a walk Saturday and Sunday.:) Looks like we are going to be close to forty. I haven't seen the Moon in weeks here.:( I keep trying for a shot of Orion, but so far I don't have the reach. I just got a 150-500 and I am going to try and stack 3 TC's. I did it with the 80-400 and it did pretty good on the Moon. I use 2 Nikon TC's 1.4and a 1.7 with a Bower 2.0 between them.

Wow! Sounds mighty powerful. I have a Tamron 2x TC I use sparingly.
Not the best piece of glass.

I Just got a keno 2X last summer. But haven't played with it to much yet.

That's one thing I was wondering if the Kenko was better. Now are you using a Nikon TC directly to the Tamron 150-600mm, is there enough room between the glass on the 2??? Or are you using a Sigma???

I put the Nikon 1.4 on the camera and then the Kenko 2 and then the Nikon 1.7 then 80-400 Nikon lens. I have not tried this with the Sigma 150-500 yet. I just got it.
