Thanks FM Yes, its with the 6x, I haven't bought the 1.5x yet but I'm looking for a good deal on it.
I'm used to the 10x on the S5000 so it was a bit frustrating running out of zoom for the first few times I was taking the picture of the squirrel on the tree when I looked down and saw the robin practically at my feet so I just got time to get a quick shot before he went on his way, the shots I got of him in the tree were a bit blurred, I'm just starting to get used to the S7000.
