Most of the shots I take with a long lens will be Morning or Evening, in addition usually 1/500 or higher. Often time it is in the shaded woods. It seems I am struggling with the higher ISO more than enjoying ISO 100 or 200. It seems I am always stuck in the low light situation.

I need to go ahead and either get a chart or a decent printer replacement. I need to figure out why the EF 1.4x looked like crap. (dirty or it has problems)

Thanks for all your thoughts on this. It is helpful.
