Takes you to the next level

I really enjoy using this teleconverter. It works great with my Nikon D7000 and Nikkor 70-200mm 2.8 VR1. I read and watched so many reviews on this product and bought almost none after hearing about the soft pictures. This does not apply to me. I'll admit I have a few soft shots here and there, but I think it's down to my time and not the lens combination. But I also have so many amazing Tac Sharp still images that I would never get because I would have to crop so much to get the same closeness and composition. I've also gotten some really good pictures of the moon with this converter, a 70-200mm to a 210-600mm lens with a constant aperture of f/5.6, and compared to buying a Nikkor 200-400mm f/ 4 saved about $6,000. I considered selling the bike to pay for it just to move on. I'm not rich at all (I work in a pizzeria) and it's more of an exciting hobby to just try to get the best pictures of my kids when they're all grown up. Here is a link to my son's soccer game[.]
