As I am still waiting on my LCE adaptor, I was thinking about buying a teleconverter, but I do not have the foggiest idea how they perform, and weather they are worth the money. Also What power (magnification) will they give a CP4500? (for example waht will a 3x converter make the camera lens if it were a 35mm). Also is a tripod needed with them or ae they easier to use hand held?

If anyone uses converters can they give me thier names so I can check thier gallery pages.

Thanks for all the help.
