Well, I guess we can all be a bit misleading. The OM 150-400 has a built in 1.25x TC, which you conveniently ignored. So it is...

Nothing wrong for choosing a lens at a lower price point. I used to use the 500 mm f4 over the 600 mm f4 due to cost, size and weight...

The 8 lbs is a bear, the Pangolin boat had seat-mounted gimbal heads which handled it well, but with another 2 lbs with the R1 or R3, I...

I have missed more shots by having 1.4x too long a focal length than spoiling a shot by not having 40% more focal length.

In my case, it's more often unmounting the lens, removing the TC and mounting the lens again when a subject is too close, but the end...

Built-in teleconverters are most likely always better than lens + TC from image quality perspective because they are optimized to a...

I use extenders regularly, but none built-in. The primary benefit, in my opinion, is for when the environment makes taking the lens off...

If Canon released a 500 mm f4 DO I would likely trade-in the 400 mm f2.8 for it.

A 500/4 lens with DO could be mighty attractive. Heck, spice it up a bit more with a 1.4x. As much as I weighed getting that Nikon...
