All,
Anyone use the 240 LS, + 2x, on an XF body with IQ3-100 ?
Looking for any issues, comments, good, bad, Limitations, etc etc.
I'm aware that its heavy. Mainly looking at focusing (Autofocus), shooting and resolution topics.
My main use is wildlife-in-the-landscape, (Tripod and Hand held) along with telephoto landscapes from tripod. From previous experiments with MF, I know I want something this long if it is doable. On the DF, using the old 240 was a waste of time. (IMO)
Tripod is a 3532LS Gitzo with a Satchler FSB-6 fluid Head or an Arca D4.
Context. I currently shoot an IQ160 on Cambo WRS-AE, and never use the DF body, BUT, am about to upgrade to the XF and IQ100, so looking at XF lenses for various options for Landscape, and 'wildlife-in-the-landscape' style shooting.
I use Canon 1dx II and assorted Long glass for real wildlife shooting. Not expecting the XF to take that over.
Any thoughts welcome
Regards
Mark.
