It looks like they stull using the old charting method to calibrate the lens instead of the usb dock.
They can only calibrate 2 points (the closet and infinity) if they use the chart method.

Even with the USB dock, the focusing chart is still needed......

Didn't manage to go for our SBWR outing yesterday due to the heavy rain, but here are some from a brief catch up with troct at botanical gardens

 

[ricleo]

all the shots above were taken with the 2X TC. The image of the swallows on the statue was 2X + 1.4 TC stacked.

strangely, i see that quite a number of my shots, including the one of the stacked swallows were at 450-490 mm instead of the full 600mm. not sure if i accidentally zoomed out, or the TC is reporting a wrong focal length. hmmmm many shots came up at 493mm.
