Minolta teleconverters

ahh, it was a Minolta 400/f4.5 G which was on sale. Very good piece of hardware. Regular bird shooters will certainly invest in bazooka, but how many of us shoot bird most of the time. I do respect those shooters able to produce good piece of work. Indeed, capture bird in flight is certainly no easy business. Even with 400 or 300 prime lens is still difficult. If you talk to "old birds", they will tell you it is the technique and experience and not hardware. :lovegrin:

You are right. Experience and technique are paramount. However, without the necessary hardware, it'll make a difficult job (shooting birds) even more difficult. With hardware but neither technique nor experience, its just like Ferrari without Michael Shumacher- difficult to win F1 all the time.

This is a good quote. Will use this if necessary.
