Speckled Wood
This is a Speckled Wood Butterfly, warming up on our Raspberries this morning before taking to the air several minutes later. The great thing about using the DA*300 and TC for shots like this is that it gives you working distance.

I've just ordered the 1.4X, should I cancel and go for the 1.3X


You have a very subtle way of pointing out my shortcomings Barrie! I've just corrected it, you will be fine with the 1.4, people say it's miles better than the 1.3!

Some cameras, some lenses, some bits 'n' bobs
Nice colours, I was expecting a CCD sensor camera.
Funny you should say that Russ, I've found the K-3 to be more akin to a CCD sensor camera than any other Pentax CMOS I've owned / used.
