It works very well with the 45-175mm because that lens is fixed-size with an internal zoom mechanism. But even then, I am careful to support the TC when attached, with a finger or two - because I don't think the filter threads were designed for anything that heavy...

I found some interesting bits on-line that are designed to support a lens. I have ordered the bits to try on my 45-175mm with one of my heavy converters attached. If it fits well and does the job, I'll start a thread on it with details of the bits plus supporting pics. So keep your eyes out for that  thread.
