I have a c700uz camera and would like to buy a 2x telephoto lens for it. I have only found it on a couple of sites and they both want $150 for it. Is this the going rate or are these prices on the high side. Please list URL for cheaper places if you know of any. Thanks--kybellboy
 
Richard,

You might want to try the Olympus C210 1.9x teleconvertor
in your search, I got it for approximately $65 or so.

Try http://www.bhphotovideo.com

The only place I've found them so far is on e-bay, also go to the epionions web site, they rate who to go to and what they like and don't. E-bay's were around 60 or so. Just went to E-Bay to check, search for Olympus 2x and there's one for 55. See this link...

Good luck, and hope it helps!

i much question the quality of the cheap lens found on ebay though...they are mostly video lens made for video camera and very bad quality. Most probably you will get lots of chromatic aberation with them and photos that are not very sharp.

surely a good lens would be more expensive.

The Ebay price sure looks good. I'm interested in a quality lens at a good price though. I couldn't quite make out the brand of this lens of Ebay. So, what is a quality lens brand?

Well, those Titanium serie lens are made for video. I read comments from people who said they were very desapointed with it and the image quality was not good.

I would probably go with the Olympus lens c210 that seam to be a fair price and i trust Olympus quality.
