(EXIF settings inaccurate with legacy Angenieux lens attached) Manual setting f7 1/1250, ISO 102400

This provides a 140-420mm zoom capability with max open aperture of f8. The 6D's remarkable noise reduction features and high ISO compensates for the aperture restriction caused by the extender - lengthening the life of this superb lens in the process! A $20 Hong Kong conversion collar to use this lens with my old Canon 50D, works just as well on the Canon 6D. More modern conversion collars provide accurate focus indication in-camera. Image taken with Leica Digilux - the original Leica Digital.

When all else fails, fall back on old ways...

Taken using Leitz 2x Extender with Angenieux 70- 210mm lens (=420mm) Clear cold night - remember the massive meteor display due late this evening around Leo - the Leonid Meteor Shower in the eastern skies - at this intensity only once every 33 years.
