Does anyone have experience with the 70-200 f/4 IS and the 1.4x II? Favorable?
Here's my issue. I am trying to get a little more focal length. I returned a bad copy of the 100-400 and decided that I wanted to stick with newer technology. So I tried the new 70-300L, but the inner barrel wobbled and I had to return it. Now it is out of stock at B&H! It's like someone doesn't want me to spend the money....
So either I wait for it to come back in stock or consider a cheaper option: the 1.4x TC. If cost were no object, obviously I should wait for the 70-300. But now I am wondering if the 1.4x would provide a more versatile alternative. It is actually not a huge cost savings, because I would sell the 70-200 if I am happy with the 70-300.
BTW, the 70-300's zoom ring placement drove me crazy for the 2 days I had it. Not sure what Canon was thinking there...
