Re: Wide angle converter for Panasonic 14-140?

I have one that I used on my 14-42 and it had severe vinetting on the wide end. If you ar ok with cropping out the center horizontal section you can use it.

It was advertised as a 0.45x but was really 0.85x. The 2.5x was really 1.3x.

IQ dropped a bit also, but not bad. I still got great pictures, but dont use it anymore because you can do can just take a step or two back and get the same FOV.
