I'm starting to get jealous.
Hello Craig,
When I started out with this set-up a lot of images found their way into the trash.
I tried using a monopod but it just didn't work for me, so persevered with handheld shooting and now it is much easier.
Higher ISOs are often necessary with this lens and teleconverter as the fastest f-stop is f/8 when at 630mm.
It's nice (wonderful!) when there's enough light to shoot at 100 ISO with a decent shutter speed, but that's not very often when chasing birds in woodland.
Cheers,
Terry
