2x Teleconverter
Have been looking for a 2x teleconverter. Seems that the Century one is the one to get, but is expensive. Anybody know of any other options?

I had that setup- the hood has to come off.........optically the Sony is awesome- get it- you'll be happy.

Have you tried the digital zoom? Looks very smooth on the GL2

focusing
Does anyone have trouble focusing when using the 2x Teleconverter? I was testing mine out yesterday, and when I zoomed in all the way at 20x or 40x, I could not get focus, even with manual. It was overcast and an hour before sunset. Would the amount of light make any difference?
