I have just received the Kiron 1.5x TC (BTW, the seller, Rob Lun, 
appears to be a nice and reliable person).

Good build quality indeed, about twice as thick as the Vivitar 1.5x 
TC, and with much less play - the Vivitar, together with a big lens 
such as the 180/2.8, is not stable at all. Much nicer feel overall. 
We'll see what the pics are...
