Hmmmm, i think it's time to hit up the rental shops (wonder if i can rent a teleconverter as well, i'd imagine so).
Of course, the 70-200 f/2.8 is more expensive than most of the other lenses i'm flipping around between - and the teleconverter is going to be another $100-300 on top of that. (I'm thinking i'd want to pair up lens mfgr and teleconverter mfgr).
The other downside to a teleconverter is then i lose the 70-140mm range when i've got the teleconverter on - which is the advantage of an 80-400mm.
So many variables, so little time (part of why i'm brain dumping about all of this so out loud).
