This lens does a great job of giving me more zoom..made by Panasonic, it interfaces perfectly with my Panasonic DMC-FZ7. Do NOT settle for any substitutes...! from Bhphotovideo.com This lens ended a mounting frustration of photographing birds that keep their distance. I can now capture sharper eyes and plumage; far more definition. from Amazon.com I BOUGHT THIS TELE CONVERSION LENS (TC) TO USE WITH A NEWLY PURCHASED PANASONIC FZ50. YES, IT DID BRING THE SUBJECT IN CLOSER BUT I FOUND THAT BY TAKING THE 'SAME' SUBJECT WITH AND WITHOUT THE TC LENS I COULD GET THE EXACT SAME RESULTS IN PHOTOSHOP WITH ABSOLUTELY NO LOSS OF IMAGE SHARPNESS. from Amazon.com Conversion lenses have always had a poor reputation. Typically generalizations like fuzzy, corner falloff and so on. The Panasonic DMW-LT55 Tele Conversion Lens appears to be the exception. Mounted on a Lumix FZ50, it produces images that are sharper than expected. from Amazon.com I enjoy birdwatching and naturally I wish to photograph the birds I see when I can. I used this lens with the FZ7 on a trip to Maui. from Amazon.com the main problem with it is that since the fz50 has a fixed lens, the tele-converter attaches to the camera lens by screwing onto the filter thread. from Amazon.com when a great blue heron unexpectedly landed nearby, i nearly held my breath as i slowly raised my camera to my face. from Amazon.com note: although the image stabilization of these panasonic cameras is excellent you absolutely still need a tripod in my opinion to make the best use of this fine piece of glass. from Amazon.com on the fz50, the lt55 can be used handheld with the camera's optical image stabilization system activated. from Amazon.com in the raw image setting, you cannot zoom in x2 or x4, but of all the settings, the raw image setting used with a dmc-fz50 and this 3x teleconversion lens will let you shoot at a fair distance and from Amazon.com
