Has anybody used a teleconverter with panasonic 14-140 vii and GX7 or another body maybe? Could you share your experiences?

I have the mk1 and many other lenses, and have tried many wide angle and tele converters. Most really don't work well.

For wide shots the oly 9-18 is by far your best and cheapest option. Most teleconverters only seem to have sharpness in the very centre on my long lenses, or have strange bokeh.

Play by all means, but don't waste money on them. I have many here as paperweights!
