Fellows!
In my local photoshop (or camera store, not the application from A*obe) I've
found one Zuiko 50/3.5 Macro that I have wanted a some months now, due to my
student budget keeping the Zuikoholic in order. Recent mailings on this list
have opened my eyes for a other piece equipment that is for sale in same
shop, a Vivitar 2x Macro Focusing Teleconverter MC. The "want" for the macro
is slowly turning to "need". I have realized that I do have extension tubes
for macro but no teleconveter... I do have a Zukio 135/2.8 that could be
extended and replace the Tokina 300/5.6 I have (and love to hate).

So now I ask you to tell me: Do I get 5 times more bang for the buck with
the Zuiko-lens? Can I learn to like my 300/5.6 with another focusing screen?

Please help...

/ Johan - I do want my master degree so I can earn some OMoney
