I bought a screw on the front of the lens 2x teleconverter and I need to know some info on how to use it.
First, I can't use it now, because I think I need some sort of adapter, because when I put it on my 18-55mm lens, it vignettes really bad, I can see the inside of the teleconverter. Also, it doesn't work as it should, it doesn't magnify, just boosts the focal length by a teeny tiny bit. The manual says that some cameras have an option for full telephoto or full wide angle mode. But I don't think my Nikon D3000 has that option, does it? Can someone help me with that?
So the other part of the manual for the teleconverter says some cameras need an adapter. What is the adapter that I need for this screw on teleconverter to work? And how much is the average adapter? Would it be better to get a real one? one that you put between the camera and the lens? and how would that work? the ken rockwell site says that it's doesn't work well, a few different problems. How would my pictures turn out with each teleconverter, the screw on one and the one that goes in between the camera and the lens.
Or off the subject, what's a cheap telephoto lens thats higher than my 55-200mm, that has a built in motor and a feature similar to Nikon's Vibration Reduction?
But I still need my teleconverter questions answered. Thanks for the help. I appreciate it.
