Hello guys,
I want to use the T-CON 17 teleconverter with my Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ18.
Frankly speaking, these diameter numbers in mm confuse me a lot. (I'll be very thankful if someone explain me this diameter dilemma in easy language.)
I was told that I need to buy Panasonic DMW-LA3 lens adapter so that I can use T-CON 17 teleconverter with my camera.
I've searched a lot, asked to many distributors, but no one has this DMW-LA3 lens adapter in India.
Then I came to know about its alternative PA62E Adapter (62mm) made by Pemaraal.
But as it is a 62mm adapter, I needed to buy a 62mm to 55mm step-down ring.
I've Ordered PA62E Adapter (62mm) + 62mm to 55mm step-down ring and now I'm finally going to buy T-CON 17 teleconverter.
This whole thing cost me 6743 Rs./- only.
$55 for PA62E and 62mm to 55mm stepdown ring + 4,200 Rs. for T-CON 17.
Is this what all I need to use T-CON 17 with my FZ18 ?
Or is there anything I'm missing out ?
