Turned on the 2x extender and it became a 1200mm lens effectively.<\/p>\n<p>At that extreme focal length, it was almost impossible to hold steady, let alone frame accurately. With the sun setting fast, setting up a tripod may mean losing the shot. The only option was to set the camera to a fast shutter speed and fire a burst.
