[OM] Re: Stacked TCs

[Jeff Keller]

Thanks James. Even if I didn't remember your middle initial I remembered
your quick comments on telephotos you've made over the last couple years.
Congratulations on your sale of your big Zuiko. You got a good price. One
sold a week or so later for about $700 less.

Photodo gives the 300mm f2.8 Tamron slightly better ratings than the 400mm
f4 Tamron. You'll probably enjoy the lighter weight of the Tamron. I don't
think you'll have any issues with its quality. I have some doubts about
using stacked TCs on it though... ;^)

Did you get a green Tamron or a charcoal colored one?
