This was my first outing with the D500+300mmf4 and 1.4tc.

I made some exposure and setting errors throughout the morning due to my unfamiliarity and clumsiness with back button focusing.

I've since returned to the armchair reread the manual sections on controls and reconfigured some to hopefully thwart me less next time.

But given I am only on shot 330 with the camera, it's early days!

The 300mm lens and tc are very light and well balanced on the D500.

The only issue I encountered was the distance we were from the subjects. On some of the shots a single focus frame only just covered the subject they were that distant!

There is no substitute for close proximity and filling the frame.

o.O
