Yes, effective at max focal length... Check my blog or the 1st page for samples... I m using on 45mm lens only... If u going to use on the zoom lens, set it to max focal length, and your shot should be nice...

I just back from subang parade, I was testing the macro converter, the guy promoting the 45mm lens, but when. Ask him, he said this adapter cannot fit on the 45mm lens. Strange.is it because he did not take out the black plastic converter? To fit in the 45mm, the black ring need to be remove and he dunno?

hi, for starters, what cam r u using?
If ure using a Micro 4/3, then just hunt for any m43 lenses from olympus or panasonic lumix. lenses from Nikon or Canon will require an adapter as they r of a different format.

Filter corresponds to the size of ur lens is measured by the diameter of the lens opening ie, 52mm,58mm,67mm etc.
Wide or tele adapters will then be strictly brand reliant. The Olympus Wide Angle Adapter fits the standard 14-42mm kit lens of the m43 format. Panasonic has their own.

I m using epl3 m43 camera.. I m now looking for tele converter for the 40-150 m.zuiko lens and any wide angle lens or adapter for the std kit 14-42.,, hunt around but dunno which can fit...

well, since you can state that you are using E-PL3 m43 camera you should also know that means the "direct" mount type is m43 (logical, no?)

so if you are looking for any wide angle lens (which can mount directly on your camera) ... look for m43 lenses with a focal length <= 17mm.

as for adapters for the 14-42 kit lens (or other similar diameter m.zuiko lens eg. 45mm) ... Olympus has a Tele, Wide & Fisheye converter addon (to be attached in front of lens).
i'm sure there are shops which will demonstrate with a demo unit (if not on your camera) if you ask them or show interest to buy.  that's easier than just imagining things ... perhaps that's y u keep asking the same questions and feel like difficult to get what you want.
i have not seen any official Tele converter addon for 40-150mm m.zuiko .   just to confirm, do you own the zuiko or m.zuiko 40-150mm ??

there is one tele-converter adapter for 40-150mm zuiko (not m.zuiko) .. which u mount at the rear of the lens (not in front) to extend the focal length.
*
I try to get those accessories from lyn but from the description I not sure whether tose filter , adapter, lens. Etc can fit or not...
I m using m.zuiko 40-150, that can fit in direct without mmf2 adapter.
I read thru net some m43 user can use lot of other lens with different different adapter. I wonder how to check wat lens need wat adapter to able to work well with m43 camera? So far I only know mml 2 adapter can help fit 43 lens on m43 camera, am I rite? How bout other lens or adapter?

first, you should differentiate what you are buying
......... and also if there's any disadvantage using them in combination with a particular camera/lens.
