I haven't seen foxes here, but our diggers are armadillos. I am too lazy to get outside at wee hours to see them. And there are might be someone else who keeps re-digging the same hole in front of the house. (I've sort of given up on closing it back every time.) Other large-scale pests in our ya

I have the 1.4x-L and it works great - I mostly use it with the A* 200 f4 macro, though I originally bought the TC for use with my A* 400 f2.8. I did not like the 2x-L so much and sold it - it was sharp but bokeh on the 400mm was weird. The Pz-1p sounds like a nice find - I used mine for a cou

Love it but it does look quite dark on my screen, in a bright room with the late afternoon sun streaming in through the window. Cheers, Dave > On Oct 19, 2016, at 11:04 AM, Brian Walters wrote: > > I was thinking of using this for the November PUG but decided I'd rather > use something local.
