I have been looking at this site and their 5X zoom lens for the OLY 2000z I tried an Oly 1.4 converter as was disappointed. Does anyone have any experience with this type of lens or have an opinion on how it would work? Their picture samples look pretty good

Thanks..

We just got a sample of this lens in-house, will try to get to testing it shortly. Can't yet speak to optical quality, but the construction on it is of very high quality (all machined/anodized aluminum, no plastic anywhere.) We'll check it out on our own Oly 2020 (same lens as C2000), as well as on the Nikon 990 production model we have in-house. Meanwhile, I think Steve has a review of it on his site, but I wasn't too impressed with the images he shot. Check out http://www.steves- digicams.com/ and look at his accessory reviews.
