Roger Doughty, I'd love to hear a little more of your assessment of that 400, especially relative to X1.4 and X2. In comparison to other birding lenses is there anything you don't like, etc.

+1. And on what body? Great shots.

It behaves very much like the 500 ii relative to the 1.4 and 2.0 Tele converter. Resolution loss seems comparable .Not so much for the 800 and my In my opinion the 800 doesn't do well with a Tele converter. I use the 400 with both the 7d ii and the 1DX. The pictures I posted are with the 7D Mark ii to.Both bodies are a dream to use with this lens.
