Q: 1. Is the 100-400 significantly better performance and optics than the apsc 70-350? I realize that it is FF vs Crop, but am interested in the slightly longer reach and slightly faster aperture.

A: The 100-400 is better in low light being f/5.6 vs 6.3 on the 70-350. And is optically a sharper lens as well.

Q: 2. How do the programmable buttons and focus ring operate with the sleeve in place. Is the tripod mount on the lens covered as well and will it still easily rotate?

A: This product is a series of material rings you apply. This allows you to manually focus as well as rotate the lens horizontal and vertical. And lastly, the buttons are open to use.

Q: 3. using this lens on the a6600 body, which teleconverter would be better for wildlife and nature photography? The 1.4x or the 2x?

A: Both the 1.4x and the 2x teleconverters are fully compatible. The 1.4x would turn the lens into 140-560mm f6.3-8 while the 2x would be 200-800mm f8-11. So while the 1.4x would be better in low light and/or at lower ISO ranges, the 2x would be better for longer focal ranges which could determine whether or not you capture the shot of a skittish animal.
