Superman wrote: What I will say is mirrorless cameras have slower autofocus IMO already, and if you slapping on a 2x converter you are going to now lose 2 stops of performance. Honestly I would just go with a used older telezoom lens. Keep an eye on Craigslist, Ebay and even www.keh.com for some good deals on used.

What I had in mind was a set up such as GH4 + 100-300, which is equivalent to a 200-600mm in 35mm. Anyone tried that?
Yes, the magnification is the same, but the pixel density is approximately twice as big all other things being equal when compared to an equivalent FoV captured with a full-frame (i.e., what would have taking the shot with a 300mm and crop it to have the same FoV of the FH4). The biggest weakness IMO is the high iso performance: that's always going to be worse than a FF sensor, but how much worse?
And no, apparently autofocus is not that slow ( www.thephoblographer.com/2014/05/27/pana...ound-close-nikon-d4s )
