Has anybody tried this combination?

If you are talking about the Tcon 300 it has no threads and mounts by way of a bracket......and is 3X

If your talking of the B300 it has 55mm threads and is 1.7 power

Hi Genece,

Thanks for your reply and correction re the magnification with the TCON 300.

Yes, I am referring to TCON 300 that comes with a bracket.

I used to have one that went with an Olympus E20 I also used to have!

So, I am thinking that with bracket and the 55-62 stepup ring on the FZ30 it "should" work!

Now, I just need someone to loan me their TCON 300 to test out my theory...

(or to try on their FZ30 :idea

Kenneth, good luck "hatching" THAT fantasy and bringing to reality!!! :blah:

Some one said they were getting one over a dpreview a couple weeks ago but I never saw any photos ...makes me think it did not work well.
