Hi Marc!
If you've Leitax'ed your lenses, you could always take a Canon
Extender! Perhaps not quite as good as the APO-R extender, but I
suspect it would give you a better image, than simply cropping the
original file, as you have. Another alternative is a 1.4
extender. Not as strong, but not as much image degradation, nor as
much light loss. That, and some (but a lesser amount of) cropping,
might give you the same result, with better image quality.
Extenders, while not the perfect solution, in any case, are a great
idea for the traveler. Both compact and light.
Just thoughts...
Cheers!
David.
