First, nice pics.
I use the Nikon 1.4 III teleconverter and 200-500 on my D500 quite often with excellent results, as long as there is enough light. It's a good combo and don't believe the folks who say otherwise...

I shoot a lot of full scale and remote control aircraft. I also do occasional wildlife. My latest lens is the 200-500mm and I have been really impressed with it. Today I purchased the teleconverter mentioned in the topic. I should receive it tomorrow. Can't wait to test it out with the 200-500mm. This will be attached to my D500. Anyone else using this combo and have any thoughts or photos to share? Below are a few shots I have taken with the 200-500mm.

Below is a link to a post from my very first outing with 1.4TC on a 200-500 mounted to a D750. I was very pleased, hope you have a similar experience

I've enjoyed it on the 500 and 850 and frequently use the small group AF mode when there is action. Thousands of shots!

Those look geat to me and sharp. I use the 200-500 with the TC-14E III 1.4 on that lens for most of my bird photos as well as those that are BIF with a D5 and I am very happy with the results.
Here's one per your request.

Thanks all for the kind words and responses! I received the TC on Saturday and just did a little testing around the house. I am going to try and get out to the local wetlands this upcoming weekend for some real testing.
