Wildman - so you used a 400mm + 1.4x + 100mm extension? Wow, makes my head spin just thinking about it. Nice work.
No. The scope is at it's native FL -560mm with no TC.
RE:Manfrotto 393.
I've been using mine for sometime and have hung every imaginable kind of glass on it with good results. I find no reason to get anything "better".
A pic with the 393 and the 560 and 1000mm mounted. Also a shot from the 1000mm with a 2x TC giving me 60x. That's equivalent of 2000mm FL. Picture of fledgling cardinal in nest at over 100 feet taken with this setup.
Tom - that Goldfinch shot is perfect.
