I continue to be in awe of the skills displayed in this thread. Today was my last day of a month using the HD DA 1.4x Rear Converter with all sorts of lenses. I went out with the DA*300 and found a very accommodating rainbow lorikeet. The sky is toally whited out due to the grey wintery weather, but the results impressed me. All hand held and moderately cropped. There are several others in my flickr collection.


Rainbow 7


Rainbow 5

This one is sharp enough to display moire!

Very colourful Boris - what bird is that?

That is a male Yellow Warbler. It's the most numerous warbler in North America.

Juvenile Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher (I think) with the K-3 & F 600/4 (sans TC)

I bought myself a Pentax DA* 300mm f4 this weekend. Love the lens and these are a couple of the photos from this weekend.

Nice shots joakim. I just got my DA* 300mm f4 last week, it's a great lens isn't it.
