Yes the Olympus 1.4 teleconverter fits on the Tamron 300 f2.8 with
attached adaptall mount (at least it fits mine without any problem). I
haven't taken any pictures with that combination but I would expect it
to be very good. Since the Olympus 1.4x was designed to work with the
Zuiko 250 f2 and Zuiko 350 f2.8, there shouldn't be any problem with the
Tamron 300 f2.8.
