I ordered Kenco 1.4 tc yesterday from B&H. I will be using it with the 300 F4L Canon lens. Is any one else tried this paring. I wanted the Canon 1.4III but could not justify the cost. I had tried the Canon tc and got good results. I suppose I can send it back if it does not work out.

Did you get the "pro" or regular version ? Do you have the IS or non IS lens ?? .......

I did not know there was two versions, maybe I should have done more research. I have the non IS lens, I usually shoot with the gimble head any way with that lens. I have had extra good pics with that lens, sharp pictures, even hand held I usually use some kind of support or lean against some thing if possible.

I just got it a few minutes ago and done some test shots. Seem to do the job. It was not the pro model. I used B&H search and the one they showed was not the pro model. What is the difference between the two. I just step out to the garage door and was shooting some houses and stop sign when some geese came over. I did not have time to change to Al Servo or change any thing. Focus might have been a little slow as they were of at distance and fly away from me by the time I could get on them. I done some crops on a stop sign that was about a 1/4 mile away and it was still sharp. All test shots were hand held but leaning on some thing or bracing my self against the door.
