this is probably the Vitacon 2.5x right? it's not too bad but it's only around 1.5x in real life.

i just bought my 2.7x teleconveter ......( i exchanged the old one (2.5x one) with this one....

but it only works at full zoom without vignettes ....

but at full zoom can see slight barelling of the image only at the sides..... it seems to be a about 1.5 thhough comparing it with my digital zoom which adds a 3.5x more to the zoom......

It is about the same....

So how much is the teleconverter doing? how many x is it multiplying?
