All shots were taken with the SL2-S and Sigma 150-600 DG DN Sports - no converter. My experience is that the TC-1411 is producing bad results. I sold it and keep on taking images without any converter.

Great images and great birds.  Sorry to hear about your experiences with the TC-1411.  I am using the new 60-600mm Sigma and put the 1411 on when I got it and have never taken it off - examples of images are elsewhere in this forum.  I am very satisfied with the results I am getting. Perhaps you got a dud 1411 and can swap it and see if it makes any difference.

I'm following this thread with interest but don't have the 60-600 yet; I have the Sigma 100-400 and purchased a TC-1411 off Amazon. It bricked my lens ("lens communication error"), and I had to send the lens to Sigma to replace a circuit board. Obviously I returned the TC to Amazon. Sigma repair would not comment on what caused the damage, but it's too coincidental... I have a thread on the forum with my experiences. 

So, I do hope this is not a trend with the TC-1411s... the Sigma lenses just seem so good that it would be disappointing to think that the TCs are hit and miss.

Hi Brad, I did follow your thread with interest and glad you now have a working TC-1411.  My experience with the extender has been fine and the support from Sigma technical support on some general questions I had about the new 60-600mm has been very positive.  Let’s hope that your experience with the 1411 was just bad luck!  All the feedback I am getting on Sigma lenses is very good.

Thank you for your feedback. Maybe I've had a bad version of the converter. Maybe. For the time being, I prefer to shoot without converters.

Judging by your images, you are doing very fine without a converter!

I like this one a lot.

It took several visits of the lake, where this bird is located, to get this image. I was i lying on a jetty in camouflage dress waiting for him. Finally he came sitting on a branch - 5m off. I will get back there and try to shoot more images of the kingfisher.
