tritentrue Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share #3 Posted July 3, 2020 (edited) Thank you . . . APO-Extender-R 1.4X + 2X. The setup has just enough heft to provide its own stabilization while still being light and small enough to manage easily in the field. One more, from this afternoon's walk . . . Zebra Dove . . . please pardon the sensor dust, which I just saw . . . Welcome, dear visitor!

pgk Posted July 3, 2020 Share #4 Posted July 3, 2020 I really like experimentation with optics. Results can be rather better than many might expect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Nordvik Posted July 3, 2020 Share #5 Posted July 3, 2020 I have only the 2X APO Extender with a APO-Telyt 180mm, but with a TL that makes it like a 540mm on full frame. Welcome, dear visitor!

Apologies, Charles, for totally misreading your question earlier. For using R lenses on the SL I use R-Adapter-M (14642) and M-Adapter-L (18765). I have one 14642 with the tripod foot attached for use with heavier setups; and one without, for lighter lenses.
