But I doubt the FA* 200mm + 2* L converter can match it. However, that combo is equivalent to a 400mm f/5.6, not a 300 ... Using the 1.4* L converter you would have a 280mm f/4. (both MANUAL focus of course, not auto like the 300 you mentioned) Regards, JvW ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jan van Wijk; http://www.dfsee.com/gallery
