i for one am not sure whether the higher shutter speed limitations is going to be any use come the winter ,especially given my northerly locale .its a real quandary d300s super camera limited by iso range ,d7100 limited by high shutter speed .

anyone got any knitting needles for sale >:(>:(Surely the point about the D7100 is that you can use higher ISO than the older D300 and its stablemates and enable the shutter speeds you need?

The better crop potential of the extra pixels may also obviate the necessity for the TC, which would gain you another stop.

Dont despair Jeff...it will probably snow all winter up there and that will kick some light back onto the bif.

:lol:

luckily its a nikon so while you can see the noise in a raw file its easily removed with decent software ,had a little play today (the suns only just come out at 4p.m ) and it looks like the 1.7tc shares the same shutter speed sweet spot of 1/1600th sec. thought i might have to move that one on.i could kick myself really for not realising this earlier but its such a basic problem it passes you by ,and its not showing at shorter focal lengths either .which obviously dulls your response to the real answer.
thinking about it now i know the answer its simple really the sensors are made/developed by sony ,ALL there camera bodies have built in image stabilisers as well ,plus most of there latest bodies incorporating these sensors also have mirror less built in as well ,negating any camera shake problems o.O
