Hello,
yesterday I had the opportunity to check out the Century Optic's resp. Schneider Optic's 2.0 tele converter for the HVX 200 at my dealer in Germany.
By the way: I am no expert. I just wanted to see the difference between using my HVX with or without the tele converter. I am searching a good way to extend the focal length (zoom range) of the HVX 200. Enclosed, my screen shots.
First: Using the tele converter in full wide range. The picture is not usable.
Second: Using the tele converter in full zoom range. The picture is very good.
Third: Third: Using the HVX without any teleconverter in full zoom range.
Summary: The 2.0 tele converter is not usable for more than 80% of the zoom range. Only between a zoom level from 90% to 100% there is no vignette on the picture. But in relation to the very high costs of the converter (approx. 1500 Euro) it is not worth to buy that tele converter. It's a great pity.
So I guess the only way to get more zoom range for the HVX 200 is using a 35mm adapter with compatible photo lenses. But which 35mm adapter is the best for semiprofessional usage?
bye,
