GH2 1.4x Teleconverter?
  • Some excellent and classic <10mm lenses for small camera formats exist (and quite cheap) but unfortunately cause vignetting because the circle of illumination does not cover the GH2 sensor or they are extremely soft at the edges.

    OK there is the tele mode but some report that as noisy etc.

    A 1.4x TC would be nice, but none exist,

    So what about removing the optics from a TC and rehousing them in a GH2 Macro extension tube? The tubes fetch <$10 on ebay and an old Hoya 1.4x TC is reported as good and cheap
