Lens Advice

Ok so i know that £120 ain't much for a 500mm lens so i dont expect it to be fantastic, but i wanted to ask you guys & gals what you thought of the following

worth it ?


What about the like of the Kenko 1.4X Teleconverters ?


Cheers folks

I have zero experience onthese type of lenses however from what I've read, mirror lens are not much good. In photography, you pretty much get what you pay for so don't skimp on the money when getting a lens.
 
As for the Kenko teleconverter's, I've had two but I never used them much. They only work with the higher end lenses and even then, theres a chance the lens will not autofocus. I hope this helps, albeit, slightly late!

I think you better check to see if your camera can use it as it can only work with a t mount and manual focus only. Is the lens for your olympus camera or another kind.
