Is bigger better?


I took a field trip today to shoot some tree swallows. I borrowed a longer lens because I wanted to see how it compared to the 70-200 ED AF-S VR Nikkor lens that I had been using. These images were shot hand held with Nikon D3. I used Nikkor 300mm ED AF-S f.4 with 1.4X Kenko Teleplus pro 300 lens. On a full frame senor camera like mine this combination gives me 420 mm which is a lot more than the 200 mm I am used to. I was very impressed with the results and feel I didn't lose much resolution at all. I did notice the lens is slower focusing and it takes a little more patience to get sharp images.
