Just got an Zuiko 2X converter. Attach it to the 180/2.8 and it looks almost as impressive as a 350/5.6 :-) Question: do I have to worry about mounting the combo on a tripod / monopod? The camera is an OM-4(T). Is the lensmount strong enough?

Also, is the Beattie screen as good or better than the Olympus 2-3 screen in terms of brightness? I have the beattie screen but the focusing circle goes half dark nevertheless. I just tested it tonight so it probably will be better in normal shooting situation, but just wondering.

Thanks.
