Bob,
all nice catches - totally acceptable. On my monitor they appear a tad soft,
especially the full frame.

Here are two shots taken with my *istDS, an A200/4 and an AF1.7
multiplier.
I was very pleasntly surprised with the results. This makes a very
compact equivalent of an autofocus 510mm on 35mm.

ISO 800 - f7.1 and 1/320 (normal program and manual focus touch-up)
I believe the 2nd photo is a Black Crowned Night Herron. He posed
obligingly, then turned his head to show his long white crown feathers
(@ Corkscrew Swamp near Naples, Florida).
The first photo is 1/4th of a full frame captured with autofocus on the
beach.
Here is a full size (554KB) version of the same to allow you to see
detail.

Let me know what you think.
