Why just not crop?

Therefore my question: Did anyone try the 8-15mm fisheye with 2x teleconverter on a FF body? How is IQ and AF performance?

Thanks, Wolfgang

Unless you actually need the megapixels, why not just opt for software cropping?

With a 2x crop in both dimensions the EOS R results in a 7.5 MP image, and also gives you some flexibility as to exactly what 2x crop you would like.

With a 1.4x crop you will get 15 MP, nearly the same as your current MFT camera ...

And you will retain the f/4.0 aperture be cropping.
