Not yet, Though we are limited to 200mm. They do that so we can't muscle in on the pro's.

The big negative of course is that 2.8 goes to 5.6 with converter. I don't know what that means for a 4.0 lens like yours?
If your 2.8 ends up at 5.6 then I'd hate to think where 4.0 would end up, maybe f/8 or f/9. Not much dof out at 100 meters with that. Not to mention iso on my 40D starts looking crap at 400 when its starts getting dark.

That is a really top shot, you should have sold it to a paper
Saffar….Just as bad
Rules of the ground out here, any pictures taken remain the property of , hmm now I can't recall. Either Aust. Cricket, or the ground.

Thanks for the comment though. Much appreciated.
