Is the same thing true for using the 2X-A with lenses that might not
otherwise fit?
BTW, great shot of the young owl!

Here's another use: the OM 1.4X-A teleconverter has a projecteing element
on the front which prevents mating with most lenses that have rear elements
near the mount. My Sigma 400/5.6 is such a lens, but by placing a 7 mm
extension tube between the lens and the 1.4X-A, it all fits. I can't focus
at infinity, but i can still focus quite a ways out. Gary Falkenberry told
us about this technique, and it allowed me to get this shot:
