    I have used the 70-200mm f/4 with 1.4X, 2X, and both stacked with good results. However, its not at all user friendly to add and take off the extenders in the field.

    I think the question was not about the extenders, but rather where you got the 5D MkIII body you mentioned...

    Thanks everyone for the responses and the great shots. Looks like a dragged my feet long enough for the 70-300 to come back in stock at B&amp;H, so I guess I made up my mind!

    Well, I have a inside contact at Canon, and he gave me one to play with for a week.


    If you believe that, I have a bridge that is available at a durned good price.


    A ctually, it was a Typo, it should have read 1D MK III.
