Well, I've taken the chance. Actually a safe transaction if it doesn't work, but Bruce D. has the A and uses the L so I'm sure I'll be ok. > Unfortnately, I don't own enough > glass to test this hypothesis.

I'm sticking with the 1.4x, so I get the faster, yet still slow, f/8. Perhaps you thought the 2x-L wouldn't/doesn't fit? Brad
