Re: Olympus TCON-17X Tele Converter

For prospective buyers I recommend the Stylus 1 as I have bought my wife another one (1s model with FW 2.0 on it) since my daughter has taken over my original Stylus 1. I missed having it at the airport yesterday when seeing off another daughter. It's a great, versatile camera, especially with Firmware 2.0 on it.

Re: Olympus Stylus 1 plus 1.7 Teleconvertor

The only difference is the grip finish being a leather look in the 1s & a cross pattern on the original 1, plus a slight cosmetic difference in the dials. The 1s comes with FW 2.0 while the original can be updated to FW 2.0. Essentially they really end up being the same.

Also, the Kiwiphoto tube (made in Germany) is excellent quality too (I've just bought one so I can attach a Raynox DCR-250 macro lens).

Thanks Ross that's sort of what I thought.

Re: Olympus Stylus 1 plus 1.7 Teleconvertor

My apologies to Marcia for not going ahead with this purchase. Unfortunately my wife decided she was going to wait and get something smaller than the Stylus 1.
I hope someone else snaps this up soon as I think this is an excellent opportunity to buy some high quality kit at a brilliant price. At least I can get you back on to the top of the posts Marcia.

Nice to know it's gone to a good home.

Cheers Phill. I thought it would be ideal for a friend who is interested in perhaps getting into photography a bit more but hasn't the confidence to go straight to an interchangeable lens system. But of course if he likes this Oly then who knows what may follow.......

Re: Olympus Stylus 1 plus 1.7 Teleconvertor

No problem Kevin, I was sure my wife would have it as we had been looking at one in Jessops about a month ago but in the meantime she changed her mind. I've not forgiven her yet as I was quite looking forward to having a play with it myself Hope your friend has fun with it. Oh by the way the 14-140 is still going strong, I tend to use it for just about everything these days, cheers Phill.
