2. | George Tsialtas (17-07-2009 04:35:57) Andreas, if you use 2x teleconverter the widest aperture of the lens is reduced by half. So in my example the widest is f/11 (f5.6 multiplied by 2). But if I use f/11 I'll not have the best quality from the lens, so I reduced even further to f/14 to get a better performance from my lens and 2x teleconverter combination.
1/125 shutter speed is inadequate even for 200mm, just imagine what would happen at 800mm ! Even 1/640 is slow for the 800mm handheld !
Just search and read the effects of the use teleconverters or better, try using one and believe me you 'll understand fully what I mean. |
