Lenses / 70-200 2.8 L IS II + Extender III vs. 100 - 400 L // Comparison?
« on: August 10, 2011, 01:02:45 PM »
Hey Guys:
I do have the 70-200 2.8 L IS II (ff-bodies inly) and am thinking about the following 2 options to extend my tele-range a little:
a: buy an Extender (Canon 1.4x III, maybe the 2.0x) t.b. used with my 70-200
or
b: buy a new lens: the Canon 100 - 400mm L
Does anyone have a quality-comparison (test- pics or data) of these two options.
And:
Yes, I know, that 200mm x 1.4 is less then 400.
No, it's not a budget-issue.
No I do not look for another option then stated above.
I do want the better image-quality!
Sharpness & Details are critical, potenital vignetting not that much.
Profound advises or links to data sources are welcome, thank you in advance.
