Photographing Meerkats, Kalahari, Sony 70-200mm f2.8 mkii + 2 x TC

I wanted to see if the Sony 70-200mm f2.8 mkii was any good with the Sony 2 xTC Camera A1 and it was great very sharp kept it on all the time for the day images and video and just the A1 and 70-200mm f2.8 at night as this camera and lens combo for night photography with spot light is a killing combo even at high ISO,

Hello Dean, i have the GM II 70-200mm too since November 2021 - never regret buying it. How would you compare using it with the TC2x versus the G 200-600mm? With the TC1.4 it works fatalistic - i know. I am searching for a stronger tele optics partnering my GM70200 for Africa this summer... Thanks!

i found my 70-200 with the 2 x tc fine just a tag soft but easy to pull back, i only use this set up if i cant take the longer lens, if you was to compare the 70-200 f2.8 with 2 x TC @ f6.3 its very close to the 200-600 at the long end @f6.3 but again it also depends on camera as well, i use it with the A1 which was great but not so great on my R3 or A9, if i was to be on the safe side then 1.4TC with clear image zoom in camera is far better, hope this helps and thanks for watching
Dean,
