Amazed that the LA-EA5 AF works with that TC!
Great shot of that poignant memorial.

Let me add one with an exotic lens:

My Day 800

WA01 Cats and rain

a7iii + Walimex pro 800mm/1:8.0 (mirror lens; T-mount)

I am testing this 800mm; so far I'm not impressed.
But I think this 800mm shot is a first on Day Prime!

Well, not a bad photo Leo, is it the slightly fuzzy look that dictates your opinion of this lens or is it missing some other character.

Yes, I think we've never seen an 800 mm shot in Day prime, allthough you could still take such shots around day 70/week 10 and then post them in the day prime thread of 2 years before

Thanks for doing the maths Pieter! I really prefer the current Day Prime long lenses system!

This Samyang mirror lens just isn't sharp; as much as I like the out of focus, I want the in focus bit sharper than what this lens is capable of. Weather permitting, I might try a shot of an object (much) further away; maybe the lens is better near infinity, but I doubt it.

Good IQ with that 2x TC Mariusz!

Here's my Day 1000 shot for 2021 :

Be still my beating heart

a7rii + MC MTO-11CA 10/1000 (1986; Russian mirror lens)

I hope to make some more shots with this monster this year but I need a spell of dry, calm weather to be able to take it outside ...
