[QUOTE="JimMorris, post: 1237309, member: 45414"] [b]Canon 1.4 Converter[/b] I've had my Canon 1.4 converter for 10 days but only had the chance to get out with it once, I must have taken around a 100 pics of Crossbills and these are the 2 best ones. I used a tripod. Not very good I know but with a bit of patience and practice, some fine weather plus the advice on this thread it should get better. Like you good people said you do lose the AF. I tried taping the pins and the AF worked but it was slow and sluggish so I gave up and went to manual focus. I've just read that A1 servo is not good with a TC attached. Any suggestions?. Keep the info coming folks, I got a lot of learning to do. HAPPY BIRDING. Jim. [/QUOTE]
