Ran up on this on ebay, This appears to have twice the magnification for the 1.7X tele converter lens..... Anyone have any idea if this lens would be any good..pros/cons

Also can someone describe the difference in wide angle lens and fish eye lens...just curious

Thank

G-hog, I have been looking at teleconverters for awhile now, and I have never seen that one before. I hear to many bad things about the non-Olympus brands(TCON). Mostly that only the center of the picture comes out clear. I know OBH uses a 1.7x and his pics look good.

I have never heard of Kenko before though?

I would stay away from that one. I think your photo quality will degrade pretty bad. My friend used a 2x kenko, and I thought it was unusable.

Olympus makes a 3x lens. It is huge. (and expensive) Its called the TCON 300

Thanks CB and lan-lord appreciate the input. That is what I was afraid of...quality with a cheaper lens
