jim, PLEASE do not take my comments as being "picky". I really appreciate your
photographic postings. At 1/20th sec you did amazingly well to get any sort os
useable image!...These little critters are not always co-operative and seem
always to be on the move. You have some VERY good glass - not all of it
Olympus, and you use it well. Enjoy.

Hi John,
Thanks for the kind words. I don't think it is the fault of the converter.
I was trying it for the first time, with poor light, and ended up with a
1/20 sec. exposure. Even on a tripod, this is not good with the equivalent
of a 500mm lens. Salvaging the shot using post-processing contributed to
the problem.
A shot of a stationary object (auto license plate) shows that the
lens/converter combo is fairly sharp. I am told by an expert that even the
latest Leica APO extender causes a little loss in sharpness. I hope to do
better.
