I just decided to go long with my Fujifilm setup, and I have ordered the XF
100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR for $1749 (with $150 discount). It is
scheduled to get to me via FedEx on Tuesday.

Enjoy


Thanks.

I understand that this 100-400mm performs quite well with the 1.4TC. So I
might do something I have preached against, and buy that TC to give me a
140-560mm (35mm equiv 210-840mm).


OMG my pacemaker just went off.

FWIW: I often use a TC. The disadvantages,n focus tracking is a tad
slower, and I lose clarity with macro work. Not all cameras will
autofocus at f8. my D500 and D800 will, but at center point focus only.
The latter is only a issue for me with my 80-400, or any 5.6 lens .
