I have tried a Sigma 400mm f5.6 APO. Compact, well constructed, nice. 
But the pics were rather soft, and lacking in contrast. I have let it 
go, I will try to buy something better later.

Somebody on dpreview showed some weeks ago bird pics taken with the 
E-1 and 300mm and 400mm manual Nikon lenses, I don't remember which 
ones exactly. The pics taken with the 400mm(400/2.8 ?)  in particular 
were stunning by their detail.

He was using the Camaraquest adapter - I wouldn't dare using the 
aluminium foto-akcesoria adapter for these big lenses.

OK, I looked this up: the pics are there:
