MC7's and pro300 DGs aren't legacy models. They're still being sold.

There was a german test that showed the MC4s were the sharpest. They have been tested, and they DO introduce more flaring. I know for a fact, because I own 1.4x and 2x MC4s, and I used to own the pro300s.

I would contend sharpness is the most important factor with a TC. There is so much degradation to sharpness when you slap one of those babies on anything but a giant super telephoto.

QUOTED IMAGE

One of my ancestors signed the Constitution :)

My problem isn't the constitution itself. It is the long winded supreme court opinions. So boring to read, even when about topics I care about (which are most topics). If you ever have trouble sleeping, go find yourself an unedited version of any supreme court case.

I won't argue that. Though I have been in situations where flaring comes into play while birding--either I cannot move, or I simply do not have the time to adjust. A crap shot is better than no shot.

I hate law. And the supreme court mainly disgusts me. They pretty much always side down party lines. It's all political, and it's disgusting. Congress, the Supreme Court, the 2 party system--it doesn't work now, more than ever.

I am gonna have to disagree. The Supreme Court is far less party line driven than most other political bodies. They do set precedent for themselves and they can't go overruling stuff nilly willy :p \

EDIT: This might be considered political and against forum rules so lets move away from the topic.

Soy milk ain't milk. I hate it when people call it milk.

Milk comes from boobs, soy "milk" is ground up soy beans. I prefer to call it "soy juice" because that is what it is.

As long as they're not moobs. As long as I get my essential vitamins, I guess I don't care what it actually is. I don't drink milk because I like the taste.

Not saying soy juice isn't good, I drink soy juice every week, I rarely drink milk.

Anyone here with a PS3 played Starhawk? I have heard the multiplayer is damn fantastic. IGN calls it the BEST multiplayer on the PS3.

Hmm... the direct translation in Chinese is "bean pulp" for soy milk.

If you say so. Every time I read about them, it's about how certain members are always sticking with party ideology. I won't go about saying that the supreme court is completely corrupt, but I think presidents need to stop adding far-left/right judges, and add actual independent types. Won't ever happen though. Presidents will always add judges who will forward their parties agenda.

These judges are for life. And these guys only willingly step down when a president of their political party is in power. How wrong is that?

Soy Milk (actually Juice) tastes great--but only when it's loaded up with sugar.
