      Joel,

       I have a DeJur 2x that came with one of my cameras.Haven't been real
     happy with it.Whether this is just a quality thing with this particular
     brand or if there's a general sharpness loss with teles in general (as
     I've heard),couldn't say.For $20,cheap enough to buy to find out.
       I wanted to reply moreso because of a quirky problem I've found.Recently
    bought a 70-210 Vivitar series one.Was out one day trying to photograph
    an Osprey,and to my surprise,the 2 x refused to work with this lens and
    the OM4 ,but worked fine with the OM2s w/same lens.(Any ideas here,anyone?)
    Because of that,I'd try it with the camera and lens you plan to use it on.
    (Don't recall if you had an OM4,too,or not).Or at least,make sure you can
    return it if it DOESN'T work for you:)
       Oh,yes-and if you DO have an OM3 or 4,beware of the 4 screw setup
    (thanks for that info,everyone-was not aware of it myself:))
