I should have thrown the 1.4X TC on the camera to achieve 700mm, given 20-20 hindsight.

That's pretty nice looking for such a huge crop. Do you find the 1.4x TC still leaves acceptable IQ when cropping to that extent? If Canon does indeed give the 6D f8 AF, I'm thinking of getting a 1.4x TC III for the 400 5.6
