Well here is my 1st test shot with my Tokina/Kenko 2x Tele Plus and my 75-300mm USM III.
This was at ISO 200 f7.1.
I can achive F5.6 at ISO 100 but the diff is minimal at best.
Took with mounted on my Monopod......distance is about 75yrds.

It'll do for now but........:rolleyes

    Not as sharp as I'd like but I haven't put it to a true test....Birds!
    Can defiantly see in the ole eye piece that it darkens right down and focus is critical!!
    But on a decent sunny day with a pod it'll do for now.ne_nau.gif
    It does make for a long lens when fully extended!!
    But at a effective focal length of 960mm with 1.6 crop factor (35mm terms) it's not unusable!

    But it does work with my Canon cheapo zoom!
    There was reservations about the rear element protruding so it wouldn't work....but I'm good to go.
