MC 20 Teleconverter for M.Zuiko Digital 40-150 mm 1:2.8 PRO and M.Zuiko Digital ED 300 mm 1:4 PRO, V321240BW000

Works great with my 1-400 lens but need alot of light to use. Good Moon shots and some for wildlife

Works well with the M.Zuiko 90mm macro lens! I use it to shoot slime molds and really small bugs.

I bought this to add to my OM Systems setup for long range shots and find that it can add alot of closeness but only if you are fairly close to begin with. If you are shooting something long range, it tends to be a little blurry. I use it mostly on my OM Systems OM1 and my 90mm macro setup as it adds alot of detail for macro close ups and if I am going to recommend it for anything, its for this purpose. Its pricy but very portable and easy to take along on a trip so if you are looking for ways to improve your macros and/or attempt to get longer distance shots, this is not a bad product, just hit or miss on distance and photo quality. I have added some shots of macros using the 2X converter to show detail

Great value for the money. Helps me reach wildlife in the distance. I have the OM System M43 .

This works well with my Olympus 2.8 40-150. Excellent for stadium shooting with little loss in quality.

I bought this to use with my Olympus mft 40-150mm Pro and my 90mm Pro macro lenses. Superb image quality!

This only fits 2 olympus lens'. Get at least a 16mm extension tube and it'll still be a tight fit with the weather seal (that comes off)

Der TC macht was er soll, er verdoppelt quasi die Brennweite. Natürlich beeinflusst er die Bildqualität etwas, das ist einfach der Physik geschuldet, aber dennoch, gerade mit sehr guten Objektiven (getestet mit dem 40-150 2.8 Pro), absolut in Ordnung. Auch in Verbindung mit dem 60mm Makro (mit Zwischenring-Lösung) tadellos. Verwendet man den TC aber z.B. mit dem 100-400mm unter schlechten Bedingungen, darf man sich nicht über schlechte Ergebnisse beschweren. Da spielen dann so viele Faktoren mit (Hitzeflimmern, Mikroverwacklung etc.) und auch die extrem große Blende ist nicht förderlich. Das liegt aber nicht am TC, und auch nicht an Olympus/OM, das ist bei allen Herstellern das selbe. Verdiente 5*

As an enthusiast photographer and Olympus/OM Systems user, I’ve been considering my options for when I go on holiday. Not wanting to add too much weight to my baggage allowance, I wanted to leave my bigger and heavier M.Zuiko 150-600mm ultra-zoom lenses at home. This teleconverter could truly expand the versatility of my M.Zuiko Digital 40-150mm f2.8 PRO lens, which is my smallest and lightest zoom lens, and the MC-20 doesn’t disappoint. This 2x teleconverter effectively doubles the focal length of the 40-150mm lens to an impressive 80-300mm, which is ideal for wildlife, sports, and other long-distance shooting scenarios. When paired with the OM-5, the combination delivers exceptional results, and I couldn't be happier with the performance. The MC-20 Teleconverter retains the same high-quality build that we expect from OM-Systems (aka Olympus). It’s robust, with a solid metal mount and feels like a piece of precision engineering. The compact design complements the portability of the 40-150mm lens and attaches securely to both the lens and camera with a satisfying click. The weather-sealing is a huge plus for those of us who shoot outdoors in less-than-ideal conditions. I had no concerns in the light drizzle rain when taking the photos on the beach of a shipwreck. One of the biggest concerns with any teleconverter is whether it will negatively impact image quality, but the MC-20 is impressively sharp. While you do lose a bit of light (as expected since it's a 2x converter), the resulting image quality is still outstanding. There’s noticeable softness in the extreme corners, but nothing that should be a dealbreaker for most photographers, especially when shooting at longer focal lengths. I’ve noticed no significant loss in contrast or colour saturation, which was a big worry for me before trying it. Interestingly, I also own the MC 1.4 teleconverter (also available on Amazon), and I didn’t notice significant differences between the sharpness of either converter, but I did notice the significant extra reach of the zoom. With the OM-5’s powerful in-body image stabilisation (IBIS), I didn’t feel as much of an impact from the reduced light. This combo helps combat the potential shake, especially at those longer focal lengths. Focusing speed remains fast and accurate in good lighting conditions, and while it’s not quite as snappy in low light, the system is still highly functional. The photos of the shipwreck were taken on a damp and drizzly day just before sunset, and I just tested the converter with automatic settings on the camera (288mm total, ISO 400), and yet the outcome is still excellent. The autofocus performance, when paired with the OM-5 and 40-150mm f2.8 PRO, remains impressive, although it does slow down slightly due to the added teleconverter. It’s not a dealbreaker, but I did notice a little lag when shooting moving subjects, especially in lower light. However, the OM-5’s advanced AF tracking technology helps maintain sharpness, and for static subjects or slower-moving action, it’s almost as fast as without the teleconverter. One of the standout features when using this combination is the superb image stabilisation. The IBIS in the OM-5 combined with the OIS (optical image stabilisation) in the lens gives you a steady shot even at the longer end of the focal range. I was able to handhold at surprisingly low shutter speeds without significant motion blur, which is a testament to the power of Olympus' stabilisation technology. Again, the photos of the shipwreck were taken without a tripod just to prove the point. The MC-20 adds some length and weight to the 40-150mm f2.8 PRO lens, but it’s still manageable, especially when considering the power of the telephoto range you gain. If you’re used to shooting with the 40-150mm, the added size won’t be a major issue, and it still balances well on the OM-5. The whole setup feels surprisingly lightweight for a 300mm equivalent, and it’s portable enough for field work or travel. I’ve taken the setup through a variety of conditions, from bright daylight to overcast skies, and it held up well in all. The autofocus, as mentioned, may struggle a bit in dimmer environments, but the optical performance, including sharpness, contrast, and detail retention, is excellent. I also tested it out on some fast-moving subjects, and while the AF could be a bit slower, I was still able to capture some stunning action shots. In summary, I’m incredibly impressed with the MC-20 Teleconverter. Paired with the OM-5 and the M.Zuiko Digital 40-150mm f2.8 PRO, it offers a fantastic balance of portability, performance, and optical quality. The image sharpness and autofocus, while slightly affected by the converter, are still quite good, and the stabilisation system makes shooting handheld a breeze. If you need a bit more reach without compromising much in terms of image quality, this teleconverter is a great option for Olympus Micro Four Thirds users. For photographers looking to extend their telephoto range, the MC-20 delivers great results at a reasonable price.

No era compatible con mi Olympus E-M5-II

望遠レンズに2.0ｘと1.6ｘを2個常備しておきたい。 コンパクトで軽く嵩張らない機動性あり。 ＯＬＹＭＰＵＳ300ｍｍ望遠と一緒にセットで持っていきたい。

Olympus, gage de qualité, le MC 2.0 est plus épais que le MC 1.4. il se fixe très facilement comme un objectif. Cependant lors d' une mise à jour de votre boitier ou objectif, retirez le et remettez le après les mises à jour. Avec le 40-150 vous passez de F 2.8 à F 5.6 avec le MC 2.0 Pensez y pour les photos. Efficace, il permet des clichés que n'auriez pu faire sans. Bonnes photos.
