I see people pooh-poohing using TCs all the time, claiming the IQ penalty is too large. I claim BULL SHIT. Those people couldn't have ever tried it. I even had one guy claim that his standards must be higher than mine, because anyone could see the distortion.
Very nice shot. And I agree, the IQ using the TCs (even the Kenko versions) is entirely acceptable. I don't know why they have such a bad rep with some folks.
