A few with the Tamron 180/2.5 63B + 018F extension tube...

The 63B IS addictive. I've never quite decided exactly why. The field of view at that particular target distance perhaps?

Something to experiment with is the 30A or a crisp 135mm lens with good +1 and +2 diopter close-up filters. Feels sort'a right and produces the same results after a l'il post processing, but . . . it's still like kissin' the bride's-maid instead of the bride.

The 63B felt so perfect on my APS-C cameras, but feels a bit weird on m4/3. I just have to get used to it.

I did have the 30A and liked it a lot, but eventually sold it an kept the 63B. I had ordered a Nisi diopter to use with it, but it arrived just as I sold the 30A and so returned it.

A couple with the 63B...

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to reach a wider audience with this question hence my decision to place it here.

Did anyone try comparing the quality of image with 2x 140F teleconverters vs 1x 200F ?
The magnification should be similar and the quality with a single 140F is supposedly better than 200F, so I asked myself if this could be the trick

to avoid hunting for the 200F which is usually hard to get.

The only solid piece of similar information I could find is a direct comparison between 01F and 200F: Making Not Taking: The Tamron SP-200 (200f) Teleconverter vs. Tamron 01F: Worth the Premium?

Many thanks for your responses and also consideration, should anyone be able to conduct a similar test.
