The first two images were taken from the exact same spot, same settings, the first without the teleconverter lens (35mm equiv.) and the second with the teleconverter (50mm equiv.). These were taken at Batttery Sater in Fort Hunt, VA.
Note the significant amount of difference between the two focal lengths. More interesting however, at least to me, is the image quality is still superb. In my experience, teleconverters usually create a noticeable degradation in image quality which is certainly not the case here.
The second set of images is from Battery Mount Vernon in Fort Hunt, VA. Again, taken from the same spot, and having the same focal lengths as listed above you can see a significant difference between the focal lengths, but not in quality from one to the other.
Aperture settings are unaffected by the teleconverter, nor are any other settings. Fujifilm has done a marvelous job of marrying this lens to this camera. I am thrilled with the results. As you can see in the image below, it also should work nicely as a portrait lens. This shot is of my daughter at the Georgetown waterfront in Washington, D.C. with Rosslyn, VA just across the Potomac River.
