Since I have many shots of Cardinals in bushes, it was a good place to test this lens. The birds are 30-35 feet away. All shots are Jpeg, super-fine compression (1/2.7), SOOC with only tweaking exposure and saturation. All are hand-held, taking advantage of 6.5 stop image stabilization.
Photos 1 - 5: Lens alone (F.F. equivalent 600mm f/4). Photos are cropped.
Photos 6 & 7: Lens with 1.4x teleconverter (F.F. equivalent 840mm f/5.6) No cropping.
Photos 8 & 9: Lens with 2.0x teleconverter (F.F. equivalent 1200mm f/8) No cropping.
Downloads are recommended.
Thanks for viewing - John

Great set John. 8 and 9 are still pretty sharp even with the 2x converter.

Thank you very much, Mark. I was pleased with the results and surprised with the 2x. I found it really hard to even find the bird with a 2 degree view-angle.
