Typical channel 5 show, 30 minutes long, 15 minutes interesting, 10 minutes good.
Quite enjoyed it, no mention of "the best kit", all about technique.
Some good images as well.
Always knew Suzi would deliver

You have an offer, not a very high one though

Davex.

For me the oddest thing is if you look at the first two images of both the 300mm and 500mm the 1.7 appears closer than the 2x teleconverters. I have checked, they are in the correct order.

You may be correct John, still waiting to get a SDM lens to confirm this point.

Davex.

Suzi`s always worth a peek.

Why not offer it here first?
No Fees

There has been a lot of talk about teleconverter lately, so I thought a comparison might be useful.

All shots taken with DA 55-300 ZOOMED AT 300, on tripod ISO400, max aperture,in camera jpeg no PP, just resizing. Target was aprox 30 m away.
