Recently got the m.zuiko 300f4 and 1.4x.

When it was first introduced it was heralded as being unreasonably sharp and the 1.4x converter was rumored to be the same. Well it appears to be true.

It's a beetle!

Had I shot this at base ISO 200 instead of 800 we could identify what kind of beetle.

OMD EM1 MKII, 300mm f4 plus 1.4x converter (effective 840 mm) @ f5.6 (wide open) hand held.

edit to drop the extra 0 from effective lens length "Dammit Jim, I'm a photographer, not a math teacher."
