I didn't think you could stack teleconverters like that. I know that I can't stack my 1.4x III and my 2x III. I used to have the II's and don't remember them stacking either. Did you modify them to get this to work? Also, if you use the 2x on that 100-400 at 400, it would be f/11. If you add the 1.4x on top of that it would be f/16???? Not sure but your EXIF says f/11

All three of my Quail photos have the EXIF @ f/11, whether it's the 2x II or 2x II and 1.4x II combined. That is the EXIF data. I just shot a photo a few minutes ago outside with the 1.4x II + 2x II = f/11. Only the Canon 1.4x II and the Canon 2x II can be combined and not the 1.4x III and the 2x III. No I did not modify them. Refer to Ken Rockwell's Canon EOS R review. You will see a sample moon photo using the Canon EOS R with the Canon 2x II and the Canon 1.4x II combined giving a total 1,120mm.
Ken Rockwell states the importance of using various 1.4xII and 2xII extenders together or separately with mirror-less cameras which is a big selling point. And yes, they auto-focus okay. But, not very fast.

My guess is it's a Gambel's Quail chick. Notice the feathers on it's head are short. If it was an adult the feathers would be longer. Also the adults here won't let us get this close.

Your guess is as good as mine.

Regis, stacking your TCs. I have never thought of doing that and your results are awesome.

Hi Regis,
Do you mean that you connected the 1.4 and the 2.0 together for this shot?

Thanks
