Nothing all that sexy....... the area behind the sand dunes has been flooded with recent rain..... they've installed a temporary pump and ran the outlet hose over the dunes and used two of these things to anchor the outlet of the hose...... I assume the pulleys are off a dredge that is used to help keep the River Murray mouth open to the sea (all the recent rain is doing that job now)

This is the area they are trying to drain..... levels are somewhat higher now we've had more rain from when this photo was taken a week or so ago... the beach is behind the shacks in the background

I'd say that you've done very well with this TC attached to your K-1 and the famous FA*250-600 !

I've also kept this TC which I still use, once in a while, with K3 +DA*300/4. It actually does a better job (for me) than the Pentax HD 1.4X.
Great shot at such distance!

K-1 with the shy persons portrait lens (DFA 150-450 at 450mm, F8, 1/500 and iso 800)

yes this was difficult as I was shooting with a CF monopod. I was on the shore and the ship was approx 2Km away. Due to heat shimmer there isn't all that much detail on the ship, which made focusing problematic. All things considered: the shooting conditions, lens and TC involved, the results hold up remarkably well.

Interesting that you found the Pz-AF TC 1.7x to be better than the Pentax HD 1.4x TC.

here is a 100% crop:

Pentax K-1 - SMCP-FA*250-600mm f/5.6 @ f/11 ISO 400 1/1250th + Pz-AF 1.7x TC 100% un- corrected un-sharpened crop.

The not so fast 4.4fps of K1 is just nice to capture the flight sequence of this Grey Heron

Shot with Sigma 500 F4.5

Rainbow Bee-eater, Ipswich, Queensland, Australia. K-1 with Sigma 500 f4.5 APO DG EX and Sigma 2x TC.

Kengoh,

Sometimes when I see images like yours, it makes me want to throw my stuff out. Superb, as usual.
