5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have for FZ18 users ..., September 2, 2008

I purchased this adaptor through Amazon/Onecall. It screws on to the FZ18 barrel (55.8mm) and has a 55mm thread in front to attach auxilliary lenses.

I am using a 1.5x Olympus Teleconverter with a 55 to 52mm step down ring and the results are simply wonderful! The additional 1.5x reach - without having to use Digital Zoom or Cropping ensures much better results.

Please do note however that once you attach this adaptor, you will only be able to use the tele end of the zoom. If you zoom back to the wide end, the image will look like you are viewing it through a tube / tunnel.

This lens adapter has met my expectations. It is solid metal and fits perfectly to my Panasonic FZ28 camera. It connects with the Olympus TCON 1.7 Telephoto Converter Lens seamlessly.

Awesome build quality, this thing is made of steel, contrary to what I thought earlier. I used it with Lumix FZ-18 to screw in my telephoto lens Raynox DCR-2025. Once the whole thing is attached, the unit is amazingly stable and solid. Holds the lens very well.
