7d canon full frame9/27/2023 ![]() Įven trying to focus in Manual mode can become very tricky unless your subject is more that 30 feet away In other words, you definitely do not need a tripod. I've never used a tripod in my life! With today's IS - or, in the case of the lens I mainly use now (my Siggy 120-300mm f/2.8), OS - and decent hand-holding technique, shooting sport handheld (with and without TCs) is easy. What on Earth gives you that notion? It's clearly not experience. There's a TC attached for all of these, as the Exif indicates.Īlso forget about hand holding, you definitely need a tripod. I confidently predict that the effect on AF speed of a 1.4x TC on a 70-200mm f/2.8 will be completely "Real World" insignificant - people use this kind of set-up all the timeįurthermore, with the 7D and a decent Raw converter (I currently recommend DxO Optics Pro 8) the loss of a stop is trivial too - no problem at all with ISOs well into 4 figures (3200 ISO, 3200 ISO, 3200 ISO - they look good a lot bigger than this too) to maintain shutter speed. Harry, like lots of folk who actually do the kind of photography Justin is asking about, I shoot field sports (and motor sports, and birds), and routinely use TCs: neither AF speed nor the loss of a stop are issues in any way, in anything like decent light (you'll notice that the OP talks of shooting "daylight sports").
