Wayne,
It has been about a month that I've been waiting to hear about your
pictures you took with your IS teleconverter and I just couldn't wait
any longer. How did they come out? I had been wondering this since
Last Fall's Photographica where I tried to fit one of those on an OM1
and was subsequently scolded by the sales person. I kept thinking
that "You ought to be able to do that. I wonder if anyone else has
tried it."
