And I did.

Here's a shot taken with the 80-200 at 80mm:

I also tried some shots with the A* 200/2.8 + AF1.7x adapter.
This is a very nice pairing from an ease-of-use standpoint;
it's very easy to hand-hold this combination (especially when
you are used to handling a 300/2.8).  Unfortunately it suffers
somewhat from chromatic aberration, especially in the corners.
Here's a grab shot showing how easy it is to hand-hold:

And another shot from this lens combination:

And finally a shot taken with the F50/1.7.  This was shot in
RAW mode, converted to TIFF, then rotated and saved as a JPEG
using Micrografx Picture Publisher
