I just figured I'd hang onto the filter in case I got another 300 2.8, as it seems to be a common size amongst fast teles. However, with the 'magnification' factor on less-than-full frame DSLRs, I'd rather spend the money on something else - except that I don't have the money to spend in the first place, if you see what I mean :-) Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| www.macads.co.uk/snaps _____________________________ Free UK Mac Ads www.macads.co.uk
