I am confused by the TC issue - can you not use your E mount TC between the camera and the LA-EA5? |

All this is why I find the in-camera Clear Image Digital Zoom an effective alternative. Main drawback is shooting JPG only. Main advantage is cost (£0.00).
Here's an enthusiastic article about it at B&H Photo, https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/photography/tips-and-solutions/sony-clear-image-zoom-the-most-amazing-shooting-mode-you-never-heard. |

It cannot be physically attached because it interferes. There may be exceptions, but E-Mount does not physically attach TC to lenses that do not support TC. I don't know if this is a deliberate design. |

Also, you are off the topic of LA-EA5. ![]() There is no reason why you shouldn't use optical zoom with cropping or super-resolution. Both, not either. I like to use 1 in APS-C mode. Equivalent to 1800mm in FE200600 + 2xTC + APS-C mode. This is the size that the moon fills the screen and is the limit that I can handle. You can also add super-resolution processing with software such as LightRoom. Bird photographers say that 600mm is the standard lens. 1800mm is only a medium telephoto lens. ![]() |

Thanks, all seems a bit OTT from Sony. |
