Just got a 1.4x mk.iii and used it with the 70-200 f2.8 mk.ii. I must say, it does a pretty good job overall. Took this of a friend's daughter yesterday. The full is resized, the second is a 100% crop.

Nice contrast/ colors. Nice Bokeh and sharpness too.

I'll be careful what I say because this might be a friend or relative of the poster but, is it just me or is there something not quite natural, unsettling even, with the eyes of this model?

There was an inquiry about this before, IIRC it's a type of contact lens that's popular in Asia. A product link was posted previously.

Ricku, I took the time to go through your entire album and have to say that you have a great eye (not to mention a great natural model also) O and I like the look of the Contact lenses BTW also.

As too this lens I have to say that I just love it. Sharp clear and great color. You can take great family shoots with it or use it to do public portrait work at the beach. Case in point here are a few candid's that I took of my Sis in Law to be with her son at the Beach while I was there meeting the family in Vietnam.

Nice bird shot
but one of the few occasions, in a narrow range of conditions, where the bokeh from this lens is not impressive.
I've run into it myself at times, once made for quite a hideous background blur where there were many small tree branches.

Thats not bokeh artifacts rather a fence or mesh behind the bird ...

likely is
not smooth due to OOF background structures not blending nicely
still qualifies IMO

find a busy scene at mid distance and look at it thru that lens, then change the FL and aperture and you may find a few situations where the background bokeh is heavily marred by spherical distortions and looks, well, gross.
Small tradeoff for the otherwise excellent performance of that lens.
I liked the old non-IS version for making smoother background more often but I got the v2 for the ultimate sharpness and contrast.
