Raynox 2020 2.2x tc lens test report.

Hi Hatstand, any chance of some examples. The 1.7x Nikon TC-E17ED is one teleconverter that I have not owned or been able to test. 'Back in the days' when TC's were the only way to get more reach, everyone on the Minolta forums said the best of the bunch was the Olympus 1.4x Tcon 14b. But last year when I tried it on a few M43 lenses it performed badly compared to the Raynox - which I admit has many faults, as stated in my article. But I am going to test 4 different TC's against each other in a few weeks for another report to double check them against each other once more.

Anyway, if you could post some example photos where you have used the Nikon TC-E17ED on an M43 lens, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Some of my airshow photos using 45-175mm with teleconverter are in the links below.

They're PP'd and reduced for forums... but if you poke about in the UKAR forums where they're posted, around the same dates... you'll find plenty of examples from the exact same airshows, by other posters who will mostly have been using big lens DSLR's. There are many variables, but it might give an idea of how my m43 photos stack up against the big guns.

Shuttleworth "Fly Navy" 2016, 45-175mm + Nikon TC-E17ED

Shuttleworth Military Pageant 2016, 45-175mm + Panasonic LT55

RIAT 2016, 45-175mm + Nikon TC-E17ED

I might take a couple of shots of a test chart, with my Raynox 2020 vs my Nikon E17ED, for comparison - but that would need to be done outdoors... and the weather stinks right now, so don't hold your breath...
