That Tamron 150-600mm has me curious. I've been thinking about what kind of setup I want to have ready for the 2024 solar eclipse. This lens combined with my 2x TC would be a great setup to get out around 1200mm (probably only go to 1000mm as the lens is reported to get soft at the 600mm FL). The 400mm I get out of my 70-200 w/2x TC just isn't far enough. Photos of the sun require a serious crop to get in close. Here is a photo I took last week at 400mm.

Cropping the shit out of it works but you can only blow it up so large if printing.
