Sorry ,Joel, I thought you were talking about something like ND filter[:$]


I should have done some NR but it looked ok in PS, pictures in this forum do look noisier.

JJ, Thanks for the comments. I attempted the cropping a little tighter and I think it still did a good job of maintaining some details. Don't think I could blow it up too much in a print, but here are the two pictures at 800 px. dhesling, here is the full sized picture and then re-cropped and removal of some branches.

Wow, I like this cropped one and your 1.4XTC too. good job!

[dhesling]

Jayson, very nice! You were still able to retain lots of detail!

[Jayson]

Thanks guys, I was very lucky with the Kenko. I actually bought another one and was stacking them for a while for some macro stuff and it still worked really well. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the 1.4x TC to anyone. Only issue is the new DGX one doesn't work with my 70-200f4 IS. Heard other people with that problem too. Oh well, at least I have one that works.


I am always amazed at the pictures you guys post on here and thank you for the inspiration. Now if it would hurry up and become spring.
