I just looked and they have no lenses marked As-Is in the Canon manual focus section or EOS section. Do your homework before trying to bash KEH though. As these forums will attest, KEH is one of...

Look on their actual web site Chris. http://www.keh.com

What were you thinking? -- Fish are evil

I haven't had another lens yet that could take 2 stacked 2x converters as well -- Fish are evil

The just announced 120-300 also has a new finish, new electronics, and can be used with a new USB module to update firmware and adjust focusing via Sigma software. I'll be interested to see how...

Take those charts with a grain of salt. If you look up the 200mm 1.8L and rely on those charts you'd think it was an absolutely abysmal lens -- Fish are evil

Sorry for the late answer. I'm talking about using autofocus in live-view mode. That will work past f8 but it is only useful on stationary subject matter. Same setup as the moon but settings were...

Actually the idea is brilliant. I will be very interested to see how well this works. -- Fish are evil

I used the remote shutter to focus too instead of manually focusing. Settings were 1/40th sec, ISO320, and F14. This is the remote shutter release I used. Best $7.50 I've...

Very beautiful! -- Fish are evil

The most important aspect with using a teleconverter is starting with the sharpest lens possible. I have a 200 2.8L II that will take 2 stacked 2x teleconverters better than the results I had with...

The moon can be done with multiple teleconverters but you really need a stable tripod and remote shutter release. Focus in live view and take single shots rather than a series as you will find the...

If you get out Tasmania way, visit Liffy falls. Nowhere near as big but beautiful all the same. I can't believe it's been 12 years since I was in your neck of the woods. -- Fish are evil

+1 for KEH. You get a 6 month warranty with their used equipment and I haven't had a bad experience with them yet -- Fish are evil

Oh how I would have loved to get some light onto those eyes. I dont know if it would be a possibility considering the distance and price I'd pay in lost shutter speed. How much light could a Better...

So far the PP has been noise reduction (light on the bird and heavier to the bg) some sharpening on the bird and levels. I'll work on the shadows and see what I can do. -- Fish are evil

Thats a good kind of itchy :) -- Fish are evil

Amazing shots. Thank you for posting them -- Fish are evil

Thanks Paul. You're right. Exposure compensation would have helped. -- Fish are evil

My standard BIF setup of a 200mm 2.8L II and 2x II extender on my 7D For now crops like these must carry me through. -- Fish are evil
