Ingemar;

I'd just like to confirm that the Zuiko 300 + Zuiko 1.4 is a great combination. 
In
fact, see Andre's msg this AM for his 'feel' of 300 + 2X.  And I still maintain
that the Zuiko combo = 420 F/6.3 is superior to the Tokina 400 F/5.6.  Others 
may?
disagree.  As for a 1.4 on the Tokina, giving appx 560 F/8: it'll be hard to 
focus
and unless the 1.4 is 'matched' to the lens, the results will be degraded.

Good luck and post some bird pix sometime!
