No. There were some matched multipliers that produced results that were supposedly as good as if taken with a zoom that had the very focal length that was achieved with multiplier. Some converters are quite good (and expensive) but none is said to improve optical quality. All the best! Raimo Personal photography homepage at http://www.uusikaupunki.fi/~raikorho
