need lense specs for a 2x telephoto lense adapter for DVX100A
Hi there,
I’m interested in purchasing a 2x telephoto lense for my DVX 100A, but was unsure of the specs for that camera. I have seen 2x extenders for the DVX 100 that have 82mm Front FILTER Thread and 72mm Back Threads Lens, but not sure if that will work for the DVX 100A as well.
Also, can someone recommend a good brand name for telephoto and wide angle lense adapters. Does Merkury make a good lense?
Thanks in advance. -

The only one that works at all is the Century 1.6x and 2.0x teleconverters. The cheap ones on the market are not worth the price of shipping to get ’em. In the last four years I don’t think any other manufacturer has yet produced a workable, quality teleconverter; maybe 16x9inc but if they did I’m not aware of it. Save yourself some heartache, hassle, pain, aggravation, and money — forget the cheapo $100 adapters, and start looking at the Century 1.6x and 2.0x. (I say Century, but I should probaby say Schneider, as I think they’re now selling them under their Schneider Optics brand).
