So much conflicting advice on the best teleconverter for the G2--Olympus B300, Canon, Tiffen.

I'd appreciate help. Thanks

As far as my knowledge goes the Olympus and the Cannon lenses ase fine, the Tiffen 2X tele suffers from vignetting but some members on this forum still rate is as a must have item.

And now there is another tele lens of which the maker claims it to be 'professional quality' using it on the Canon G1/G2. Anyone with experience on this lens?

I have heard someone saying that there is a serious
problem of vignetting on G2 with a Raynox 1850.
You have to zoom to 3X to get a clear picture......
I am still thinking whether I should buy b300.
1.7X seems not very good enough.

Where do I find the A-200 (Oly) somewhere in Europe?
