I also use the lens to shoot butterflies unless I can get really close and want eye detail then I would use the 60mm macro. I also use the 300mm f4 now for more skittish butterflies but the 40-150 with TC allows for enough distance in most cases. It's a great all-round lens IMHO and even thou I am playing more with the 300 f4 lately I would never stop using the 40-150 pro or replace it with 300mm for a fair bit of use..

And since you're often using a flash, your shutter speed is fast enough to be able to catch bIF (butterflies In Flight), something that I'm totally unable of.

I went to your Flickr site and I envy your extraordinary shots:
