Ok, I ran into a situation while at a Nascar race recently. I was using my Canon EF 300mm f/4L IS USM lens for the race, but I needed a little extra to get close to the pit road, I used my 2x II extender but lost my autofocus features. I then switched to my 70-200mm F/2.8 L IS USM lens with the teleconverter and the autofocus worked with that one. The 400mm seem to be enough focal length for what I needed. Upon my return I was contemplating the EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM Lens for theses outdoor fast action pictures, but would it be any better than what I already have? Would the image be clearer with the 100-400 than the 70-200 with the 2x? I would be at f/5.6 with the converter, but the 100-400 at longest, would be the same. So the only thing I can see being a factor is quality, speed and weight...is this correct? or should I invest in the 2x III?
