Has anyone tried one of these before? Apparently they were the manufacturer for a carl zeiss branded teleconverter.

I'm thinking of picking one up for those rare times when A pic is better than NO pic.

Somewhere on the net is a comparison of a couple of M42 teleconverters. Don't ask me where.
The Weixdoft where also compared and was second or third if I remember correctly. The first place was won by the russian TELEKONBERTEP by a big distance.

I have 2 or 3 of the Weixdorfs, never used them.

Most of the pictures are the same, but I saw the test elswhere. Maybe Anu published it elswhere too.

Btw, I don't consider it a good ideea to take a rastered print as target. Especially not one with multicolor raster. You never will know what is CA and what the separate rastercolors thought by the printer to melt together in the final image.
