Wow that good information as I plan to use mine at airshows too. I may pick one up. Did you need a 55 to 58 mm step up ring to put it on?

Yes, if you're using a genuine LA7 tube.

However, there is a splittable adapter tube you can buy on eBay, that has 58mm threads and therefore takes the TC-DC58A without needing a stepup ring.

That tube is handy because you can leave one half of it on the FZ200 as a bit of lens-barrel protection, it doesn't cause any vignetting at full wide angle.

Leave the other half on the teleconverter, and it's somewhat easier to add/remove in the field...
