as some will know I use the popular sigma 150-600 C lens coupled with a Nikon D7200 crop body its one of the best rigs I have used over the years . this week I spotted a sigma tc-1401 teleconvertor for sale at a bite your hand off price so I went for it . we went for a spin on thurs to Colwyn Bay one to test out our new car and two to try out the t.c .
first conclusions are it works well with no MA issues however a much increased shutter speed is needed the simple maths are camera and tc = 840mm plus 1.5 crop factor =1260mm so my 1/1000th shutter speed was to low imho it needs at least 1/2000th sec to work hand held . below a couple of test shots I will persevere with this till I get it right. all shots hand held
