Actually, I sold the 2X and bought the 1.4X. The 2X just added too much softness and was notably slower enough that it just didn't work for me. I chose the 200-600 over the 100-400 simply because it's just too sandy/dusty/windy around here for me to use a telescoping lens. Sealed or not, I seem to always have issues with things getting inside my lenses.
I smell a sale coming of the 200-600? Also if you use your gimbal with the follow mode you could set that down and it will track you as you take your pics, isn’t that why you got that gimbal so it can be your camera man. Just some thought to think about.
Sale of the 200-600? I would never sell that lens! And the gimbal setup is way too big to carry back there with the birding setup. I intended to use that for other scenarios. If I'm going to film myself birding again it'll be with the Insta360! 😂
have you thought about selling the 200-600 and using the 2x on the 100-400GM?

Ha! Yeah, I think I may have to hire an assistant to lug all this stuff around for me!
Is there an older/newer model for Sony 2x extender . SEL20TC.SYX this available on Amazon .
There was an older version for the A mount but it was SAL not SEL.
What about af speed with 70 200 + teleconverter? Did you have any issues?
No, works like a champ. A little slow on the 200-600 but that's no surprise since it's a lot slower of a lens.
