First and third are with my Sony A-200, with an old Minolta 70-210 f4 lens, the one called the “beercan. For the really close shot I had my Olympus TCON 17 screwed on to the beercan. That gives me 535mm equivalent. The TCON 17 works better than a “proper” DSLR teleconvertor. It is brighter and sharper. Second shot is with my Panasonic FZ30.
