Yes, 180/2.0. Has a nice tripod ring so it is stable, gets me the working
distance
and easier to focus. Typically it will be 180 + 25 + 25 + 1.4x and no rocking
the
boat. (rather than 180 + 1.4x + extension, that is extension in front of 1.4x).
I tried the combination one day because I needed the working distance
and the 135 was just not quite enough. Next I think I will try a telescope
on a beastly mount. And photograph ants 50 feet away! like I used to
do when I was in high school.
