Paul, This is a pretty nice image. Very large on my screen and some grain is a result, although not too bad. As I previously commented, that 2x converter seems to be a good one.

I mounted the D FA 150-450 and an old A 2X-S converter on the K-1. That meant my tired old eyes had to focus manually, but the in-focus beep and flashing light on the K-1 make it fairly easy, using just the center focus point. This combination fives me full frame, whereas with the DA 1.4 converter, the frame vignettes in the corners. And of course I can get more reach with a 2X converter. This was shot at 900 mm and is cropped to about 60 percent of frame. ISO is 1250. I think the stop is f8, although the exif data doesn’t record the stop accurately with this setup. https://www.photo.net/photo/18350527/untitled Oh, and photo.net broke the site again. I don’t really know how to use it yet, so I hope this actually shows up for you.
