Playing In The Sand Dunes With My New (And Cheap) 2x Teleconverter

Went up to an area north of Perth, Western Australia with some friends to play in some sand dunes, so I took the opportunity to try out my new 2x teleconverter on my Canon 7D and Sigma F2.8 70 - 200mm lens.

It seemed to work okay and I am more than happy with it - especially as it only cost $150 AUD :grinning:

Thanks and yes it is a great area those dunes.

Unfortunately the images don't do them justice in regards to their size as they are a lot steeper than they look :grinning:

Unfortunately I didn't do any video on this trip; however, I will be back up that way in a few months, so I will do a video then.

Great shots, I'm also using the Canon 7D and (Canon) 70-200mm F/2.8 lens setup, I love it but am thinking about buying another camera.

I would love to upgrade as well but I am currently 'Gainfully Unemployed' / semi-retired so money is a little tight but the 7D is working well and I still love it :grinning:
