Has anyone had any experience mating the above? I am interested in whether or not the cams will marry with the RF focussing. Also somewhat interested in hearing any thoughts about contrast and sharpness issues or metering issues. Thanks to anyone who may have thoughts!!! Cheers, Sam

SLR tele converters don't work with M cameras for M glass as the back focus is wrong. On top of that, SLR converters don't have RF cams.

But the same teleconverter could work with a SLR lens on the M240 and M-P via live view focusing.

There are some good combos to try. This isn't one of them for the reasons stated above.
