A Pass From The Tackle by Nigel Hayes, on Flickr
From this I learned a few things...
Rugby, certainly at this level, doesn't offer too many clear sights of the ball.
2x converters might be OK to focus at f8 with static subjects but with moving ones they suck - at least the Teleplus ones do, even on an L lens...
The action always seems to take place far away from where you're stood regardless of how many times you move to follow it...
Maybe really big sensor counts aren't pointless after all... I cropped this 80D image down quite a lot to get the final composition and the full size version is still a beautifully clean 15Mp, not so sure the old 40D images would stand up so well...
