Teleconverter lenses are for interchangeable lenses only because they are supposed to fit between the lens and the film/sensor. I don't think that's possible with FZ50.Hi guys,
I am currently using a Pana FZ50 and the Raynox DCR250 lens setup for macro.
Am wondering is it possible for me to stack a 2 X Teleconverter lens after the Raynox DCR250?
Please Advise.
Thanks.

Any reason for adding a TC ? You need more magnification or working distance ?
With your current setup, magnification can achieve very big .....
I need more working distance, which is why am thinking of stacking a TC after the DCR250.
Not sure whether is it workable or are there better ways to do it?
Thanks
I dun think you can find any that can fit in the front...

What if you zoom in?
take macro with closeup filter, focal length is not the focusing distance factor.What if you zoom in?
Yes, you have to use to fixed focusing distance. I find it easy to compose as I know the fixed focusing distance. Maybe you should need more practice.Zooming in all the way won't help much on working distance as well, and it's even harder to focus with the DCR250. (fix the focus, and moving to and fro for best focusing)
That's my newbie experience.
Unless someone can help with a better solution.

Remove the filter, you will not get good magnificationYeah.. I mean remove the closeup filter or use one with less power.
I think there is a product out there selling for TC where it fits in like a filter. Stacking a DCR-250 is going to create harsh vignetting on the edges and soft images on the pic quality. Are you sure you wan to do this? I have seen alot of fantastic work from other forums and they are using only the Raynox and your cam. Working distance wise is way ok with your LCD review before taking your pics. Imagine DSLR users have to look through the viewfinder. We have to twist and turn our body just to take one pic....
Hope this helps.

Use less power (or lower diopter value), the focusing distance will increase but also fixed.
