Hello Jim,

Thanks for your info.

Kind of sad to know the 1.4x will not fit some lens.  This renders the
original idea (which I thought was "smart") not workable.  :-(

Now thinking if there is any other cheaper/lighter way to handle.  But I can
somehow smell that the 180/2.8 is waving at me...


Best regards
Ben ^_^
