I have a Canon 5D3 camera and a canon 300mm F/4 L prime lens I use a fair bit. I also have Kenko 1.4x and 2.0x Teleconverters.
When I focus without a teleconverter (well, with too) I use Live view and zoom in 10X and manually focus (for twilight stuff) and get sharp images. But for some reason I cannot focus as well with the Teleconverters. The lens focus ring just does not work as well. In daylight I can use auto focus and it works well but it's the dark sky stuff.
Anyone have any good reference for accurate focusing?
