I'm going to be traveling to Mexico this June for the annular
eclipse and to Australia in November for the total eclipse, and instead of
bringing my Vixen 102-ED and GP mount I'd like to bring a more compact
setup. I have a Nikon 300/4 ED lens which is quite good and a Sigma
400/5.6 that I haven't been too impressed with. I'm thinking about getting
a TC-301 to use with the Nikon lens to get me to 600/8 for closeup eclipse
shots. I don't plan to do night sky work with it, but I'm wondering how
well it would work for eclipse and daytime shots at f/8 or maybe stopped down to
f/11.
